Precisely, the hill to die on is to socialize the profits, not to demand we keep the shitty, injuring, repetitive task jobs that break a person's back by 35.
You don't protest street lights to keep the lamp lighters employed. The economy needs to change fundamentally to accommodate the fact that many citizens won't have jobs yet need income. It won't change, but it needs to.
So we'll keep blaming the wrong thing, technology that eases the labor burden on humanity, instead of destroying the wealth class that demands they be the sole beneficiary of said technology and its implementation in perpetuity to the detriment of almost everyone outside the owner class. Because if we did that, we'd be filthy dirty marxist socialist commies that hate freedumb, amirite?!
