Communism will become obsolete once automation expands. Workers can't control the means of anything when their jobs stop existing. Nobody wins the fight against technology. Luddites have been trying for centuries. I'll just run as a Republican since I don't need any qualifications to get their vote

@KaliKali: I know. I've read it before. But his fears where nowhere near this close to actualization. The problem now is that machines aren't being built to do simple tasks, they're being built to [i]learn[/i] complex ones. We're talking millions of jobs in the US alone

Absolutely. Particularly since all the shitty jobs are being automated out of existence, we can put our feet up and let Fully-Automated Luxury Communism run society for us.

Only if we can pursue Trotskyism, the true successor to Leninism. None of that Stalinist or Maoist crap.
