And that changes exactly what? Yes, most people whose jobs will be automated think they are safe. However, it is very likely that automation of jobs is a Nash equilibrium outcome and fighting against it without global consensus is useless. We should channel our efforts to other ventures that would provide food, housing and health security for those losing their jobs due to automation.

That was grandparent's point. As long as software keeps automating tasks, there are very few jobs that are safe and most of them are in developing or maintaining software that automates the jobs. Software can automate a really huge swath of jobs. From research (performing experiments) to art to physical checkup, it's a list that keeps growing. While I essentially agree that such programs should lead to extremely high taxes followed by redistribution of tax money to people, right now it's not the model most western countries are moving towards.
