LUCID
Remarkably lucid long-form discussion. Lovely explicitly names 'the almost total disempowerment of the global working class,' describes the 'obsoleting project' as a deliberate trillion-dollar campaign to shift the labour/capital split from two-thirds labour to 100% capital, and identifies the $50 trillion 'total addressable market of automating all labour' as the motive force. Rentier dynamics are named without flinching, the global tax-base collapse is mapped (UK/Ethiopia/Bangladesh differential), and the three political paths — welfare state, stop the project, or invest in repression — are laid out as a menu of horrors rather than a path of progress. Minor activism hopium around 'AI reform' and public compute, but grounded in serious political work rather than magical thinking.
