Man I don’t see that being true at all. From my perspective, it makes fascism, oligarchy, and authoritarianism the much more likely outcomes after capitalism decays away. You’re assuming that the workers gaining class consciousness is inevitable. Centralized industry is just fruit ripe for the picking by a proletariat uprising. I really doubt thats how it will go down.
Not really, fascism is something that happens to capitalism in crisis and isn’t sustainable. Oligarchy is similar. As for “authoritarianism,” all states are, even worker-owned ones, what matters is which class is exerting its authority. It doesn’t need everyone to magically gain class consciousness, it’s economically compelled.
That’s been argued before, saying that the French revolution was just a fluke and we’ll go right back to monarchy rule, replacing the Capetian dynasty for the Bonaparte dynasty.
The fossil fuel revolution has replaced fuedalism with capitalism and so will the ground solar revolution replace capitalism with socialism.
