While what I think you're trying to say is true, in that this isn't a accidental misfortune of one industry and instead is a commonly used feature of the current system I do think it's worth noting that you aren't correct on a detail.
Right now layoffs are happening in tech, media, and finance but many other industries adding jobs. There's a net positive of jobs added vs these layoffs right now.
None of those jobs would hesitate to lay those people off for a dollar I'm sure. So saying it's everywhere is true in a sense but misleading in another.
