That can be said about any job that gets automated, ever. Unless you as the one bringing along more efficiency are willing to share the fruits of that increased efficiency with the people you're displacing, they will demand you halt progress, yes. It's shocking, but most people aren't very fond of becoming homeless or starving. There's a world where efficiency gains benefit us more evenly, but it's not the one we live in. So of course the best play for the common worker being automated away with nowhere else to go is to reject it as much as possible.
