I can imagine that the vast majority of humanity will be sterilized or euthanized when it gets to the point that most people lose their jobs to automation. The only people who still have a function in society will be the capital owners who pay for the machines and the inventors and scientists who invent and develop them. All the rest will be useless and will be deemed unfit to survive.

I would better take AK-47 in my hands and fight to dead instead of accepting your variant.
Then you better get ready for it. I agree with tinus42 that this inevitable. The elites have always loathed the plebs, in every system. Think what the much adored Spartans did to the Helots - they regularly culled their numbers to what was useful.
Question is, what will you do with your AK47 in a time of micro drones and localizers?
