The ruling class seems to think human nature can and should be adapted to machines and government by AI, and Russell probably would agree. It should be the other way around, that machines, government and AI should be adapted to human nature. That Russell could not see this is proof that he was better adapted to his class than to his species.
I wonder whether Russell had inside knowledge or if what he wrote was from insight and imagination. It certainly was a prequel for what is happening now, today. At the least, it shows the mindset and goals of population reductionists and totalitarian rulers going back 60+ years ago. As usual and to their detriment, the human mass chose to ignore the warnings. It is a little like ignoring the yellow light some distance away, then having to react to the red light a mere few feet from the signal. Will the human animal become a thinking species before it is too late? Time in now of the essence.

Thank you for sharing this. I find no words to express how appalled I am by the psychopathic technocratic neo-feudalism evident in Russell's thinking😱
