So, it'll be like the Taliban on camels, fighting US with their satellites and drones?

Desperate people with AK-47 have much better chances than police with drones and satellites!

Besides, why would they want to fight? If, as you claim, technological unemployment will make us all poor, then they won't earn much for risking their life fighting.

Your argument contradict himself. People will fight when they have nothing to lose - risking the life is much better than starvation for most people! Try not to eat just 3 days and you will understand what is it!

It's pretty sad, and rather disgusting, that some people's default reaction to seeing someone else's wealth is "I'm going to kill him and take it for myself" instead of "I'm going to learn from him and create it for myself."

You should read OP before writing this rubbish - "white collars" will be (or yet being) affected as well as unskilled workers, so even if you learn hard it won't guarantee success. Do you know how many programmers (!) are unemployed in the EU and US now!? Even if entire population will learn valuable skills (programming, 3D modeling, robot maintenance etc) there won't be enough jobs for them all under capitalism!

P.S. I intended to discuss peaceful ways to solve technological unemployment issue and not the civil war, which is rather obvious if we won't solve this problem.
