Make a census of the shittiest fucking work on Earth and start automating from there. In 10 years the shittiest job will be feeling ennui smoking a long cigarette under a crescent moon on a little Perisian rooftop

I'm gonna go ahead and say that cleaning toilets or the equivalent profession has been looked down upon since millennia before capitalism existed. I don't imagine that the people cleaning the public latrines in ancient Rome were highly regarded professionals. I do think that a change to socialism could improve these things, but I think there's more to it than "socialism will automatically make this better" and we all will need a fuckton of reeducation towards this.
