Welp, you’ll have to click the link to watch the video, or you can just look at this screenshot and get the gist of the 30-second clip. Either way, it’s 2017. The future is now.

Courtesy of the good ol’ BBC for this one:

Rambo the dog made a few people paws for thought as he showed off his tractor driving skills in County Down.

The labrador was filmed at the wheel by owner Albert Reid during a ploughing event in Mount Panther earlier this month.

But the rumour that Rambo has applied for his driving licence is just a shaggy dog story!

So, here we are, folks. It’s the future – we’re living in it, mothafuckas. Robots are going to take our jobs. Anything you need can be created with a 3D printer. We can just create food in a lab, and you won’t even need to grow shit anymore. We’re going to be able to control the weather before long (if we don’t already – shout-out to conspiracy theorists). And, of course, most importantly, most revolutionary, dogs are driving tractors now.

This is the direction of all human civilization.

People like to argue against basic income, but it seems pretty inevitable to me. Our population is growing exponentially as our jobs are being automated. Before long, the middle class will be an afterthought and there will be two classes of people: the extremely rich who own the robots and the poor people.

I get it – people are resistant to change. It’s scary. It’s hard to understand – people have a tendency to reflect on years past as the “glory days,” and instead of improving and adequately preparing for the future, they vote for Donald Trump to try and bring back coal mines and shit.

That’s cool – that’s your prerogative. But, I would like to present Rambo to support the case for basic income. You think this is great? Just imagine the content that people could produce with the free time to pursue their passions!

Regardless of how you feel about the future, no one can deny that Rambo here deserves all the belly scratches. Good boy, Rambo.
