I'm more optimistic - Sure, a lot of people will lose their jobs in the state sector, but frankly they were not producing anything valuable anyway, so their continued employment was basically malinvestment
I think the quality of the human capital in statist activities is not as bad a as you make it out to be either - E.G a Keynesian economist regardless of his other failings is not stupid. Most climate activists went to university and so on. Most of them can adapt to doing something useful with their lives for once. 😏
Freeing all the resources that are wasted in negative value added government jobs today will unleash a boom in the actually productive economy. This will go some way to cushioning the impact on society in the short term, and long term it's of course just better.

Oh brother..
Why do you think they made the socialists face the wall?
Because ideologues are useless once the ideology is finished.
The Keynesian economist, the climate change scientist, the DMV worker - your society is losing nothing when they’re gone.
Sorry if that hurts your feelings but that’s the truth.
They literally can’t adapt. That’s part of the point of Mandibles - as a Keynesian economist you have absolutely nothing to offer the private sector once reality bites.
As a climate scientist signing on as part of the 97% of climate scientists agreeing to tax and spend more on “””climate”””, you have nothing to provide the private sector.
I’m not some AI-doomer but the little skills they did have are gone by a Mac mini.
This ain’t gonna be pretty mate.
Things are gonna get messy..
99.9 % of the people are lazy, social creatures of habit. Even Winston in 1984: He becomes a model citizen, sitting in a café, fully brainwashed, and genuinely loving Big Brother.
Wake up, they're downsizing to usher in the New World Order, destroying sovereignty, paving way for globalist control
