At least factories and mills were smart enough to unionize. Tech feels like the fable of the scorpion and the frog as of now in terms of this. rather pretend they are the top of the food chain and bring everyone down with them than do the reasonable thing.
On topic: the bigger issue here is that I don't really see the angle of "we'll just retrain and adapt". All white collar work is in danger, and most blue collar work is also on the decline in numbers for other reasons. Are we all going to be nurses for boomers at this rate? Or doordashers and youtubers? I don't see the "next frontier" here and people thinking they they will "be their own manager" are blind to how large an impact this will be.
