Regarding the first half of the conspiracy theory, my biggest personal reservation is that it devalues the role of finance, politics, religion and other social activities. In the film, it seems that only technology is the only thing that promotes human progress, and social activities composed of politics, religion and economy will only hinder human civilization because of the pursuit of scarcity of resources (to generate profits). But politics, finance and religion actually play a role in the allocation of human resources, and a good allocation method will greatly promote the efficiency of resource utilization (of course, vice versa). This should be the role of Marxist production relations in promoting productivity, right?
In addition, in a utopian society, due to the abundance of resources brought about by scientific and technological progress, mankind will no longer need banknotes (prices), religion, and politics. But just like communism, I think it will still be difficult for him to solve two problems. One is that humans pursue individuality and diversity; the other is that it is difficult to guess that humans are fully resourced based on history and current human behavior. Under the behavior. Either the behavior patterns and needs of the entire human society are greatly assimilated, or everyone can arbitrarily get customized products according to their own needs, and the resulting waste is unimaginable.
