Yes. Very much so and the rich are making all the decisions. It's a powder keg situation, really.

@OpposingOpposum and they supply the professors

@OpposingOpposum I always think about how the French Revolution occurred when that divide became too great.

@LB67 For this to occur again some law enforcement slaves: cops soldiers, secret agents and other vigilante, must find themselves on the wrong side of the the great divide. So leaders always employ slaves who are not too smart and willing enough to do just anything to defend the order of the dominant classes..

@PontifexMarximus I think the elite are looking to a future where technology replaces their reliance on those slaves to protect their interests. At that point, most of the rest of humanity will be useless/unnecessary to them. That will be an interesting time, that I really hope not to be around to experience.

@OpposingOpposum middle class yes, lower class no ... At least not proportionate to the demographics ... Upper class people hire professors

@LB67 I have the same gut feeling. The rate at which tech, specifically AI, is advancing without conversation it regulation is a little worrisome to me, to that end.
