    Thank you for summarising the mentality of capitalism and why one guy has a trillion dollars, a few others have billions and the rest are fighting for their survival as you describe.

      Yeah, thanks for even more BS. Nothing I said is linked to capitalism, at all.

      Enlighten us, how would it go in your mind. Why would you not just fucking die, who will provide for you and why.

        It is still possible to gather and grow food and trade with others, even create luxury goods, without having what is considered a “job”.

        It’s a really odd concept that you wouldn’t be able to enjoy the world and that you would immediately die without your job.

          Ok listen, we’re 8.3 billion people on this world. If everyone goes back to growing and gathering their own food, there is no fucking way you can sustain this population. There is not enough land for everyone to grow their food. There is not enough food to gather if everyone depends on it. There will be a massive fight over resources, where a very small subset will come out on top, a massive amount of people just die and then a good portion of people who will try to survive by serving the winning group.

          And no matter where you land, IF you even happen to be the lucky one who survived, you have enough land nobody is strong enough to take from you and you happen to resources in your area you can gather, doing that will be a full time job, massively labor intensive. No matter if your ‘regard’ this a job or not.

          BTW. You can live your dream of gathering your own food right now. It’s called being homeless. Knock yourself out.

            Sure, we don’t have enough space on the planet to farm, even though we do it currently and waste 19% of all food. Communities can farm together and share things. Not every way forward is Mad Max.

            Its sad that people can’t even fathom a world where people aren’t fighting each other to be on top and just want to fight and murder to control all the data centres.

          You clearly have never have touched a plant. The amount of work required to farm and feed yourself in a single year is immensely labor intensive. That’s just one person. Try doing that with a family of just 3 or 4.
