Wrong. The right takes it just as seriously, they just see job losses from AI as an opportunity to kill off the surplus population.
This seems to be the biggest flaw with people of the center and the left wing; most just cannot put themselves into the perspective of the right wing to critically analyze the logic behind the position.
You cannot judge a right wing policy decision from the perspective of the left. The goals and expectations are not the same, so of course it doesn't make sense when using the logical framework of the left/center.
Once you understand the logic behind, then you can begin to actually criticize how their logic is flawed from its premise instead of just claiming they are stupid people who don't know what they are doing.
Nah mate, people in general across all walks of life have an incredibly difficult time putting themselves into a perspective that isn't their own. Humans are built to be biased towards our personal experiences. It's a trap we can all fall into.
I will agree though that leftists usually recognize it more because a lot of leftist theory was founded as a direct criticism of what became known as right wing ideology and how it engaged in class warfare. It entirely will depend on how educated in theory one is to recognize and understand the alternative viewpoint.
