Robots now stealing muh jobs

[retaxis]

There is a trades shortage in America and young men are being heavily pushed into them, with promises of not wasting money on college and job security from AI. They leave out the physical labor and poorer working conditions part.

Yeah for sure man...doing trades like electrician where your squatting all day on the ceiling or bricklaying etc completely destroys your back and knees. By the time your 50 your body will break down.

These westerners who treat their body like a temple of heaven will not like having to inhale fumes if doing stuff like spray painting/metalwork/welding etc nor will they enjoy fked up knees and backs and shoulders for the rest of their life.

That part is being hidden. Instead right wing media and socials are heavily pushing trades as "real men doing real work and actually building something", while mocking office workers as pansies and beta-boys who will be rendered obsolete by AI.

No real man wants to do those jobs they fall into them because other choices aren't available. My dad doesn't want to be an electrician he rather sit in a cool office with air conditioning and not have to deal with nerve injuries sustained from years of work.

I bet most of those right wingers in the media wouldn't last a week doing 'real work' like brick laying or gyprock
