…and none of the factories will employ humans, as they’ll all use robots.

It actually does sound genius if you don’t value humanity or nations. If you’re trying to build something different this does sound like some interesting staging of some new society. I think it’s insane but it sure does look intentional in all regards.

or nations

What kind of idiocy is this? It's the ideology of nation states and arbitrary lines on a map that's at the very heart of this crap.

A child born in Lithuania today can grow up to be an American and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Nations are exploitative bullshit. They have zero value except to those at the top. QED

yeah Jingoism is one of the most baffling and frustrating reminders of tribal egoism overruling common sense in the modern world.

Post ww2 and now especially post digital age, there is simply no goddamn reason whatsoever for resource wars and direct national control of certain land areas. In an age of ubiquitous real time global communication and modern distribution speeds, The entire justification for "protection" of one's "own population" via military aggression is basically "he was gonna do it first!" ... now, look... fine that's probably SOMETIMES true because our base instincts are pretty greedy and selfish. But it's pretty blatant that virtually all remaining conflict (including the growing belligerence of the U.S.) is actually driven entirely by ideology and individual ego.
