I guess I just feel like your appeal to skilled manual workers is pointless. They’re not really the focal point. It’s the large masses of people being relegated to the bin labeled “effectively unskilled”.

Getting dumped from "upwardly mobile middle class" to "unemployable underclass" does seem likely to be radicalizing . It's not clear yet how much it'll actually be happening, but it does challenge a lot of the traditional focus on blue collar workers as being the most up in arms about automation and labor.
