Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to today's lecture on unconditional basic income, or as I prefer to call it, "hospice for humanity. You heard right! We're all here to talk about how our society and all of humanity are offered a warm blanket, a basin of hot soup and a soft slipper to snuggle up in a corner and drift off peacefully into the sunset.

So what is an unconditional basic income? It's an idea that offers everyone a certain amount of money to pay for their basic needs. Sounds delightful, doesn't it? Now everyone can sit on the couch, watch multi-series shows and count their blessings, because we are promised endless vacation time.

But wait! There is one little problem. Is humanity, this mighty, creative and ambitious being, ready to accept becoming useless? Perhaps we should all consider how our beloved basic income is turning us into lazy, dull slackers. Here's a surprise from our authorities!

Oh, yes, you've heard about the employment problem because of robots and artificial intelligence. But instead of fighting and looking for a solution, our society suggests that we just cover ourselves with a blanket, turn on the TV and forget about our ambitions. After all, it's so cozy, so carefree.

So, ladies and gentlemen, the next time you hear about an unconditional basic income, imagine a hospice where humanity dies slowly and painlessly while its last days fade away in the mists of time. And remember, this idea is only an attempt to comfort us before the inevitable end, instead of encouraging us to seek new solutions and opportunities to preserve our place in the world. After all, an unconditional basic income is nothing more than a golden parachute offered to us all to hide the cruel reality that there really is only one equalizing condition in this world--"adapt or die out."

Friends, let us pray together in the temple of idleness, worshipping the shrine of basic income, because it is time to accept our destiny and find peace. Forget innovation, progress, and what makes us human--the pursuit of better things. Let unconditional basic income lull you into an abyss of comfort and forget that we were once creatures capable of much.

So, when you hear about unconditional basic income, don't forget that this idea is a kind of set of plushies to help us survive our own sunset. Instead of confronting the challenges and fighting for our place in the world, we have chosen to simply surrender to fate and accept the unconditional basic income as a gentle embrace of our imminent extinction.

Be careful, friends, because unconditional basic income is a sweet and dangerous illusion that can consume all of our humanity and replace it with lazy, apathetic zombies hungry only for their monthly check. Think of your dreams, ambitions, and potential, for they are the very essence of our existence.
