Your post reminds me of where textile workes rebelled against the use of textile machines in 19th century.

Lieutenant Valeris : 400 years ago on the planet Earth, workers who felt their livelihood threatened by automation flung their wooden shoes called sabots into the machines to stop them. Hence the word "sabotage."

Seems we are likely to see some of this again.

Edit: to be clear I don't condone sabotage, but without UBI we will undoubtedly see it occur. The future is always uncertain.
