A pretty good book about machine automation and the class inequality that rises from that. As we have seen so far in the response to Luigi Mangione, the state will do everything in its power to squash class consciousness and actions that movement can take. While some from the class of the powers that be can have the heart to side with the powers that don’t, many want to uphold their status quo. America has been sold the idea that every one is a temporary displaced millionaire, but until the American people realize that we are all in this together and have the numbers against the upper class, movements against the upper class won’t have the juice to make the necessary changes. The Ghost Shirt Society has all the rhetoric, the gumption, and the “messiah” they needed to light the cause, but the American people didn’t show up when needed and all they were left with was a ruined town.
