Fuck your society. And fuck wage labor.

Wage labor is still needed. so it will only disappear when machine labor can do everything without assistance from humans.  At that point, you have to ask: what are humans supposed to do to keep themselves occupied?  Boredom isn't freedom.

They can do whatever pleases them. At this point the only practical thing to do is to seize the Stage, force through an automation megaprojects while subsidizing the lives of the working class, and then abolish the State.

People need purpose, and most are incapable of finding it on their own.  That's why followers vastly outnumber leaders.  For a microcosm of life without purpose, look at the less-than-motivated children of the elite.  They tend to get involved in all sort of mayhem, and often die of an overdose or some other self-destructive behavior.  That's not a good model, but given no planning, it's the default one.
