I think something along the lines of; Capitalism is unable to ever “win”.
No matter how many communists you kill, how many of them you force to live under capitalism, or how many of them you force to “disavow” communism, you can’t kill the idea. The struggle never ends, dialectics tells us this very clearly: Capitalism is unable to solve it’s inherent contradictions, even if all knowledge of communism were to disappear, someone would inevitably bring it up again.
Or he would aggressively point at this picture with the quote over and over again.
Definitely disagree. There won’t be some final end of technological development and even if there were, the mass displacement of labor would take time and during that time class consciousness would skyrocket as it is doing now.
There are only 2 ways the worker-capitalist contradiction can ever be solved:
communism
exterminism (from Peter Frase’s Four Futures), where the capitalists finally fulfill their dream of automating everything and can genocide all the unneeded workers.
It’s quite important we bring about revolution before option 2 becomes viable.

(Super intelligent) AI + armed forces Automation will really be the end of the struggle. We have a window.
