I think the crux of the matter is that human labor is losing its value, but the world is structured such that labor earns your place in society.
Many are losing their position in society as a result, resulting in varying degrees of dissonance and varying degrees of reactionary behaviors.
I find it difficult to blame any one group of people for their actions when they are losing at a game they never opted into and were never told the rules of. I also observe a lot of bigotry and lack of empathy coming from those who have a better grasp on this "game." It's toxic.
