"Communism will win"

Elaborate.

I wouldn't go that far. With full automatization and AI development, socialism will become necessary if the people do not want to give absolute power to (((them))), but I see no reason why full communism would become reality. Can you elaborate?
Žižek is marxist scum.

I wouldn't say that, fascism and Distributism would both be alternatives to socialism that answer the robot question.

Yes, true. What is most important is that the means of production do not lie in private, self-serving hands, because in the future the means of production are the means of control and the means to power. When a factory can churn out a thousand kill-bots a day, what can the people do against the people who control those?

Not communism, but pic related.
Two quotes must suffice: Strauss writes to Kojéve about the predicted "end state" that "in the strict sense of the term, there is no more work at all, since nature will have been definitively conquered" (p. 238). And Kojéve later writes to Strauss:
>"The universal and homogeneous state is `good' only because it is the last (because neither war nor revolution are conceivable in it: - mere `dissatisfaction' is not enough, it also takes weapons!)
>In the final state there naturally are no more `human beings' in our sense of an historical human being. The `healthy' automata are 'satisfied' (sports. art, eroticism, etc.), and the `sick' ones get locked up. As for those who are not satisfied with their `purposeless activity' (art, etc.), they are the philosophers (who can attain wisdom if they `contemplate' enough). By doing so they become `gods' (p. 255, emphasis in original).

Look at how commons have been stolen and repackaged by "capitalism" into what's basically full-control communism, from self-driving cars to smartphones to CCTV to GMO food.

with a call for us to do something to help them,*pulls shirt*
the underlying ideological message is something like: "Don't think, don't politicize, forget about the true causes of their poverty, just act,contribute money, and so on and so on
