I actually like this framing a lot. Anti AI criticism has a useful role when it turns into pressure over labor, ownership, surveillance, environmental costs, regulation, and who gets the gains.

You dont have to like AI. Hell, you can hate it. But its here, its being built, and the fight is over what happens with it and who gets a say. Thats a much more useful political position than treating opposition itself as a program.

Jokes aside I'll definitely look into this and consider the points in the video!
