They aren’t a homogenous group. They don’t all believe this. The “AI will kill us all” narrative just sells really well.


When trying to organise colleagues you need to exercise a certain level of trust or it will never get off the ground. Unfortunately boot lickers will take advantage of that. It’s to be expected.
I hope this becomes the norm. Having tried to form a bargaining unit myself I can tell you it’s an uphill battle. Some workers are vehemently against it still and they will successfully encourage others to act against their own class interests.
