But then what?

Once the rich no longer need the serfs, they won’t suddenly decide to let you have things. They know they are superior to you, both genetically and socially because they inherited wealth and you didn’t. Their trust fund paid for private schools and you don’t even have a trust fund. They’re just better. It’s an objective fact. The world specifically chose to make them better than you, because it’s true.

The only fair system is for them to have an army of robots and then quietly clean up the population, so that you aren’t a risk to them. It’s just science.

When you’re dealing with people who think like this, who will soon have an army of terminators, what hope do we have?

You’re arguing with a scenario you invented, then treating its most deranged conclusion as evidence.

I recently read a comment that stated that, as democracy clearly does not work, it should be replaced with technocracy.

I'm amazed by the ignorance some people carry around.

Once the rich don’t need us, the poor, they will give us food, healthcare, housing, fun, everything like a utopia.

But now that they actually still need us, they can’t even provide healthcare.

With so much defeatism and this grade of inferiority complexes, I really do wonder what keeps you even alive.
