At what point does right wing just mean racist/d1ck/heartless baxtard?

I know what's been said at Davos. And I know they don't have a clue what they're on about. The Japanese have been offsetting their demographic problem with robots for decades. It works to a point, but not to the point it's stopped the acceleration of their demographic problem.

I used to have a suspicion that the attendees at Davos were just powerful cretins.......Since they'v been posting the talks on Youtube, I know they are powerful cretins.

Yea the same economic experts who roundly predicted the last crisis, right? The ones who couldn't possibly be so clueless, as to miss the biggest economic crisis in the best part of a century - when all they had to do was recognize how unsustainably high Private Debt, is a danger to economies, and look at a graph of 'Private Debt vs GDP', in order to predict a crisis...no, they could never collectively miss something so obvious...except of course they did.


The whole automation argument is a funny one really - basically what the proponents of that argument state, is that it will become impossible for the private sector to employ everybody over time, as automation advances.

Well fine then, if the private sector becomes incapable of providing Full Employment - that leaves public sector as the last possible source for providing Full Employment...(except usually the same people pushing the automation argument, view providing Full Employment this way, as ideologically unacceptable)

The intention behind (predominantly tech-industry) elites, pushing the automation argument, is really to try and get people softened up, to the idea of permanent high-unemployment being an acceptable state of affairs.

Oh please...don't make me laugh. The hiring heuristic, that creates these "experts" is, first can they do the job, second will they do the job, but third and most importantly; will they "fit in"?

And one of the features of "fishing in", not only not coming from a tramp family, is spewing feel-good horsehsit, to make the rest of the soulless mindless clones feel good.

Even better, let's dismiss them as "powerful cretins." Sounds better.

They are powerful cretins. You have these people talking about technology and robots, and they couldn't tell you the first thing, even answer the most rudimentary questions; like how does a transistor work. They don't know. And they prove they don't know.

Come on, you know how it works; a good "education" to their kind, means going to a school where knackers were excluded.

They don't have "skills", they don't have intelligence. Just power. Sheryl Sandberg was hired to Facebook for nothing more than political reasons. Her contribution to the mechanics of the operation are virtually zero. Christine Lagarde talks as if she has brain damage; she doesn't, she's just stupid. At Davos where she gave a talk how robots were going to make millions unemployed, she bemoaned the fact that these people, unlike her, did not have "skills" that made them permanently employable. What "skills"? She's an ignorant know-nothing, she was never in fact a lawyer though it's claimed in all her biographies, she graduated from being an "office wife" into management. The only skill she ever had was fishing in.

The people you claim to be experts are beneath contempt, beneath addressing...I wouldn't even have them shot. (I might do a battle royale, where I promise the last man standing gets to live and go free...arm them with hammers and scissors and let them at it. You know their kind. Their kind given the right conditions, are like a self-flushing toilet )

I know exactly how Sheryl Sandberg got where she is today. And it has a lot to do with the gig she got with Lawerence Summers when she was a student. And this had a lot to do with her family.

She is an ignorant know-nothing.

Next you'll be telling me Olivier Sarkozy made his fortune in banking on basis of his talent alone.

They really aren't. People who oppose racism are never going to be on the same side of the asshole scale as racists.

Such a simplistic view on the differences between right wing and left wing.

Yep, and that would have a lot to do with being taken under Larry Summers wing. Come on Perma, you know how these things and places work. And it's often remarked that the curriculum in these elite institutions is often weaker than what you'd find in a community college.

Under Larry's wing all the way to the Whitehouse. And I'm not impressed by Larry Summers either. His achievements being more the result of his political skills than his economic brilliance. Joseph Stiglitz has written books, where the preface lauds and praises Summers, but the rest of the text goes on to savage him without using his name. Summers is probably too stupid to realise the preface is bullhsit. But power is power, no matter how stupid you are.

is now worth over $1.3 billion thanks to her hugely successful career in the tech industry,

And all those tech appoints have been down to her political connections. I could give a long list of "elite" educated people, who've been involved in politics at an "elite" level, who've gone on to be dropped in at the top all over the place. There isn't any distinction between these people and the essential fixers the Russian oligarchs need to hire in order to hold onto their businesses....No distinction, whatsoever.

and has been named among the 100 most influential people in the world by Time magazine.

So has....Lady Gaga.....Your point is?

All the hallmarks there of an ignorant know-nothing.

You don't get very far in life by making people feel stupid.
