Beschrijving

Bol Material scarcity is ending. But abundance creates a new problem: people the economy no longer needs. In the past, those without economic value were left behind. Today, that level of neglect would be too dangerous. So the system adapts. It replaces purpose with distraction, meaning with manufactured competition, and identity with endless status games. Populations are kept busy not because they are required, but because idle humans become unpredictable. The pursuit of feelings, validation, and attention becomes a form of social control - a way to manage a surplus population without ever admitting it is surplus. If this feels unsettling, it's because it describes the present, not a distant future. >It offers a name for the future we are already entering.
