    If the extraction class was capable of this level of self-awareness, we would have converted to renewable energy decades ago. They’ll go to the guillotines shouting about being job creators and calling people ungrateful.

      Oh they have way more class consciousness than workers on average. But they have a different moral system than most of us as well. They don’t think it’s “bad” to extract the value produced by us to roll in hedonistic wealth. They think it’s good, actually. Because it just proves they are smart and we are weak. The smart SHOULD take advantage of the weak, because that’s how “we” get stronger. It’s just natural selection baby.
