I disagree only in that there is one last married recourse, which we are fast running out of time to implement, but which is indeed non-violent and would have the effect of robbing the people driving this Thanatosian engine of their fuel. And it is this:
Bank run, general strike.
And it's up to the professional class (and their direct servicers/reports) to implement it. They're the only ones with both the power and incentive. And they're the only ones with the savings and personal networks to bootstrap community-wide mutual aid that will keep themselves and the less well-off workers who participate secure while the owner class make their panic-calculations (and, hopefully, eventually conclude that a smidge of noblesse oblige is preferable to total collapse).
It's a matter of these people realizing that their choice is not between avoiding and not avoiding being driven under the AI wheel/credit crunch wheel that the AI wheel is hiding. It's whether they want to leave their jobs now, willingly, in an act that builds leverage for the negotiations over how the next epoch of human existence will look - or if they want to do it in a few months-to-years, unwillingly, with zero leverage. It's your 3 Year Trap in action.
