With AI they can dispense with thinking too. And with an Optimus robot they won’t even have to go to the store or leave the lay-z-boy, raw unprocessed beef fat can just be shovelled into their unthinking and illiterate mouths every waking hour by the droid.

Bold of you to assume they'd still need to do actual living. Why not immediately die, and be spared all the extra effort?
For their votes, of course.

Hah, there's a dystopian short story to be written there, where a regime says "These people who never got born would've voted for us, so we're counting their votes. We thank the voting population for the landslide victory and continued trust in us to govern them!"..

Maybe we can ask the Supreme Court and the MAGA party what the plot of the story should be..

Well, they'll make sure they don't need votes soon enough...
Movie: Wall-E -> showing what you are saying :-D
Yeah the present has turned into a mashup of Wall-E, Idiocracy, Inifnite Jest, Back to the Future 2 with some ideas from Neal Stephenson borrowed by the tech bros who think they’re cultured.
