    Whether it’s a voice actor relying on voice acting to not go broke, or a factory worker relying on menial tasks on a production line to not go broke doesn’t really matter IMO. But pretty much no one bats an eye at the latter.

      No one is pitching a fit because the percieved lose of skill isn’t there. How many people can perform menial labor compared to the number of people that can perform voice acting labor in a specific language or languages? People are more outraged because they percieve a skilled laborer being attacked. The truth is, both forms of labor equate in more than one way.

        People are outraged because people with social status (actors, artists) in the west are losing out to technological disruption rather than the usual lower class people and people from the global south.

          Yes, that is also true. But I was replying to a comment about menial warehouse laborers being replaced with robotics. So I was staying in that scope.
