It's not necessary about their "value" to society. People need to eat in order to survive. That means having a way of supporting themselves. Having no way of supporting themselves means a lot of people are going to die.

I'd say that's a net negative to society.

And the problem runs deeper than "retraining" or "upskilling". With the emergence of technologies that replace human workers...there will simply be a massive excess of unemployed workers hitting the market. Period. Skills or not. Where are they going to work, when there are now ten people applying for every available job?

And this is why right-wingers want teaching this shit banned in schools.

This asshole really needs to resign, if this is how he feels about doing his fucking job. If you want to spend time with your family at the beach so badly...by all means, get the fuck out of office and make room for someone who actually gives a shit.

Which is exactly why things like DEI need to be taught in schools.

If parents are racist...they teach their kids to be racist. And that comes out when they go to school and encounter other kids that their parents have taught them to hate. There is no better place to push back on that, than in the place where they encounter those other kids.

Teachers should not be forced to turn a blind eye to that hate. They should be required to teach kids a better way of interacting with each other, because it solves two major problems at once...

A)...it provides every kid in that school with a safer learning environment.

And B)...it might actually prevent some of those kids from growing up to also teach their kids to be racist, and end the generational learning curve that perpetuates racism in the 1st place.

Not if it's still running.

He should team up with Andrew Yang. Just a couple of rich boys, fighting against the system. Good times. /s

I honestly don't understand how these asshats can think that "diversity" doesn't also include white folks. Or that "equity" doesn't also include white folks. Or the "inclusion" doesn't also include white folks.

Teaching kids to respect each other, regardless of their race, religion, sex or gender, is never a bad thing.

Ever seen what happens when you don't cull male chicks?

Yeah. It's pretty brutal. They don't just kill each other, they also tear the females to shreds.

We should expect some enterprising Microsoft coder to come up with an automated AI agent system that racks up chatbot metrics for them — while they get on with their actual job.

Lol!
