Discuss the Technocracy Movement & Anarcho-Technocracy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technocracy_movement

>Get rid of parasitical price system
>Cool work hours chart
>Annex (?) all of North America
>Similar to a resource based economy I guess
>Put smart people in charge, relevant to their field
>GM produced "Technocracy Gray" cars (source: https://www.wired.com/2015/06/technocracy-inc/)
>Lasted from early 20th Century until WW2/New Deal era, when it fell into the obscurity it is in today

Bunch of stuff I didn't read on archive.org:
https://archive.org/details/ualberta_technocracy?&sort=-downloads

Some starter questions or something:
Is it a legit alternative, or just flavored Socialism?
Do you support it, or like anything about?
Do you still attend their meetings (wherever they currently exist)?
Was Howard Scott 'legit'?
Anything that's related and good/interesting at all?

>technocracy
You don't have to create thread for every obscure ideology/belief, although the ancom one generated posts unlike the tankie one.

This is /pol/
Communism and anarchism are the only political ideologies discussed here LOL
Delete /pol/ now!

Nanonymous No.4671 [D]
IMO it's an under-talked about ideology, distinct from all others.

>you said anarcho so therefore meme

Default Technocracy is not anarchic.
I only threw that in there because someone came up with that form, managing to be even more obscure than the parent ideology it derived from.

>anarchism
I don't really remember time when anarchism was not politically incorrect, moreover every "incorrect" ideology got popularized and normalized in the last few years so it's hard to say what's the point of the incorrect part of /pol/; not being mainstream? There is no antifa.

Even then, left-libertarianism is far more dangerous, thus probably more "incorrect", to the state, rulling class and whole system that's in place, as it's neither 1917 nor cold war. It would very quickly evolve into libsoc/ancom if carried out by competent people having enough traction.
/pol/ on the other hand doesn't want much more than consuming what they like, "white" people holding their leashes and they think that 'work' dignifies. Add a little bit fasci bullshit and you have soild neocons.

Would homelessness, neets and food shortage be a thing of the past w/ Technocracy?

Probably not, as the possible implementations that would speak or identified with technocracy would be either productivity-obssesed freaks interested only in exact sciences or people who like grey.

On the other hand, if you are conformist and can bend, it can be "good", although at that point you are lifeless goo or struggling to topple the government for one which will make you 'work' more and everybody else too. Consumption, culture and society is death.
Modern technique has made it possible to diminish enormously the amount of labor required to secure the necessaries of life for everyone. This was made obvious during the war. At that time all the men in the armed forces, and all the men and women engaged in the production of munitions, all the men and women engaged in spying, war propaganda, or Government offices connected with the war, were withdrawn from productive occupations. In spite of this, the general level of well-being among unskilled wage-earners on the side of the Allies was higher than before or since. The significance of this fact was concealed by finance: borrowing made it appear as if the future was nourishing the present. But that, of course, would have been impossible; a man cannot eat a loaf of bread that does not yet exist. The war showed conclusively that, by the scientific organization of production, it is possible to keep modern populations in fair comfort on a small part of the working capacity of the modern world. If, at the end of the war, the scientific organization, which had been created in order to liberate men for fighting and munition work, had been preserved, and the hours of the week had been cut down to four, all would have been well. Instead of that the old chaos was restored, those whose work was demanded were made to work long hours, and the rest were left to starve as unemployed. Why? Because work is a duty, and a man should not receive wages in proportion to what he has produced, but in proportion to his virtue as exemplified by his industry.

That sounds like an argument for Technocracy?
Basically saying "lol it was chaos before and after but not during this technocracy-like period".

Just because there is Technocracy I don't think would preclude self-employment or smaller endeavors certainty, such as art or creative solutions.
