Disney-owned animation studio Pixar is poised to undergo layoffs this year, TechCrunch has learned and the company confirmed. While sources at the company
In Q4, Disney+ added 7 million new subscribers, bringing its total to 150.2 million
apparently 150.2 million subscribers can’t pay for Pixar? even at the bare minimum pricing (that includes ads so generates revenue) that’s gonna be at least $750m monthly revenue
or maybe it has more to do with layoffs causing stock price rises, so good to sacrifice workers for the shareholders.
People don’t seem to understand that the final solution for capitalism is ZERO labor — ZERO human workforce — as humans are extremely inefficient. The problem is that the entire engine fuelling capitalism also requires a population of consumers making money through their labor, to pay (demand) for goods and services. Without that demand the entire engine shuts down, and we’re left with either some form of autocratic dystopia or Star Trek grade socialism.
TL;DR Capitalism is destined to consume itself eventually.

Reducing work for humans is a goal we should strive for.
But we need to also reduce average working hours and set up ubi.
