I’m kind of a techie social activist myself, and you’re very right about technology not being the whole solution. I think people forget that no technology can solve all of our problems. The technology is a tool but we also need to organize with one another in the human sphere and decide what is fair and what is not - what rules we want to play by.
And I’m with you that we should question whether we want to live in a world where so many workers lack basic benefits.
In the long term I want to see us end employment-based social programs, but we’re not there yet. Until we get there, we definitely should make sure workers are treated as workers with all the legal benefits that entails.
Have you ever read Murray Bookchin?

- TaylorAlexander 7y agoYou're very welcome. I first came to appreciate Bookchin through his interviews on YouTube, but I am now reading a book of his essays called "The Next Revolution", which I can recommend!
