PEAK CLOWN WORLD: EUROPEAN AND AMERICAN ROBOTS LOSE JOBS TO ASIAN ROBOTS

You really don't get a better "clown world" headline than this! But sadly it is not some wild exaggeration made up by a clickbait journalist, but an actual fact. 

As reported by Metro:

Adidas has announced it will be closing down its ‘Speedfactories’ in Germany and the United States and moving production to Asia.

The factories are staffed by robots that make the company’s running shoes and will both be shuttered by 2020, according to a press release.

Instead, the technology will be moved to Asia where robots there will take over manufacturing.

The automated factories that are closing were only opened in 2016 in Ansbach, Germany, and Atlanta in 2017. But Adidas has decided to move production to automated facilities in China and Vietnam.

‘Going forward, not only running shoes, but also models of other product categories will be able to be produced in a short period of time by using the production processes tested in the Speedfactories,’ the sportswear giant said.

So, yes, Asian robots are in fact taking jobs from their European counterparts.

Ironically, the creation of the Speedfactories were meant as a way to lower reliance on Asian production lines that are too often criticised for unethical working conditions.

Martin Shankland, Adidas head of global operations, said the factories had helped the company improve its expertise in innovative manufacturing, but applying what it had learnt with its suppliers would be ‘more flexible and economic’.

Yes, global capitalism has zero interest in creating nice jobs for you, so that you can earn a decent living and raise a family.

If they can outsource your job to some sweatshop economy on the other side of the World where it can be done a few cents cheaper, guess what? They will!

Also, if they can totally automate or computerise whatever it is you do so they don't have to pay you or anybody else a wage, guess what? They will do that too.

But even better, these globalist scum are quite happy to do BOTH at the same time -- totally automating any job they can, while also outsourcing it to a cheaper economy.  This is like "Fuck You!" screamed in your face twice. Remember to keep buying the shoes.
