This is a joke, right? Putting aside the servile goy peasant attitude, surely they wouldn't actually be dumb enough to think that old style manual labour has a future in this day and age.

It is not mind vs body.
It IS discovery vs using discovery.
It's the scientist vs the technician.

In a purely technical sense, it's right. Software engineering is currently years ahead of robotics, so jobs that require dexterity, like a restaurant chef, are safe for a while, if only because it would be prohibitively expensive to build/maintain a robot with that many moving parts. Trying to go to college and get a purely mental job will be a pathway to obsolescence for anyone who isn't extremely smart and hard working.
But I get the feeling that that's not what the author was thinking when he wrote this...
