      You get that they’ll just de-professionalize those roles and let untrained, unskilled hacks and quacks loose on the general populace, right? I mean you want to have your kids taught by some goof quoting Grok, and your grandma getting her life saving treatment from Bobby Kennedy approved witch-doctors that’s where you end up if the professionals all decide to quit En Masse.

      …so let people die, stop caring for our neighbours, allow ignorance and illiteracy to fester. Seems extreme and misplaced.

      A better, less-nihilistic approach might be: stop buying things, cancel subscriptions, sell dividend-paying stocks, etc. Or even better: a general strike.

          Yes, but it includes the whole population rather than a narrow sub-section. It would also send a much stronger message.

          See what happens when CEOs and politicians need to wipe their own asses.
