Well, it’s not like there’s a whole ideology explaining how workers are exploited of the value of their labor to benefit capital, with a proven growth of hoarded wealth and shrinking middle class all while productivity is higher than it’s ever been while somehow the lower classes still have as much trouble making ends meet as ever. More, probably, given the absurd level of homelessness in supposedly developed nations.
We don’t need to have reached the technological singularity, we just need to have most of the energy in the universe gathered into a container the size of a microwave so we can get the replicators online. Or we need to find a way to reliably violate thermodynamics.
Maybe when we live in a post singularity society where everything we want can be printed for free.
If by post scarcity you mean Western workers produce seven times more value in goods than they consume over their lifetime, guess what?
Don’t worry though, we still have forty more years of nuclear genocide to meet the deadline.
Where are all these goods going?
And we produce far less than Asia. So they must be producing like 70 times what they consume.

But, hey, we’ve got air conditioning now.
You know who had no air conditioning?
Medieval lords.
Unless they had a guy with a fan.
Just show me these figures without rhetoric.
You are full of shit.
What “western” worker produces seven times more value than they consume?
You are full of bullshit. Cite a source or shut the fuck up like the useless propaganda pawn that you are.
Just curious, what do you think that "produced to consumed’ value is at?
That’s why we rely on Asian slaves and indentured Mexican servitudes to keep us on the top.
That’s for the love of the game, not a necessity.
Not that I doubt this, but do you have a source?
A claim based on, iirc, national GDP versus average income by well known commie shill, Jordan B Peterson.

We already have enough for everyone, if we just toned it down a bit.
We’re closer to most of our work being automated than a profit-driven system will allow.
