Is this cuck even Christian? Because, while I despise the secularization of Christmas. I despise those who whine about it while not fallowing Christ even more.

Nick Cohen was, at least for a while, one of those annoying loudmouthed nu atheist arseholes, but I think like with many of them it was really just a way to mainstream islamophobia and orientalism while playing the edgy contrarian card.

Tragically many nu atheists fall to the allure of sola scriptura interpretations of Christianity, and from thence, to complaining about How You Can't Even Say Christmas Anymore in their fight to destroy insincerity.

Ive been looking at that for a while now I really don't know what to say.

Britain's greatest scientist assembles a Gaming PC, a treaty is ratified between the robots and a national leader dressed a construction worker, while the moneyed manager class use VR goggles to never again have to behold the poor. Drones swarm while a fleet of unoccupied police cars drive themselves down winding dirt roads to a vast mountain of garbage.

Or, on the other hand, in Corbyn's Britain, a black man shakes his fist angrily at long line of sullen robots while they file one-by-one into the ovens to be melted down for scrap. No jobs for robots. ANTHNNOVATION

I have this open on my computer but after the foreword and introduction I had to stop. He uses the phrase 4IR 101 times. In a 39 page pamphlet. It's horrible.

Lol at the tacit endorsement of the labour theory of value implied by associating the replacement of labour by machines with a weak economy and productivity

Exploration is ill-advised.
So basically they're taking the American Democrats approach to vaguely gesturing towards Silicon Valley assuming apps, drones and virtual reality will make them not have to care about poor people?

Yeah but even dumber because the British tech industry doesn't remotely approach anything resembling even a shadow of silicon valley

i loving love that the conservative vision of the future is the suits and CEOs wearing VR hats to avoid looking at the workers.
