Labor Variable / Organized Resistance

ENGINE SELF-AUDIT — The engine's "all resistance is staged conflict" thesis contradicts its own Turchin SDT and BCS frameworks. BCS theorem is symmetric: works bottom-up too. Current: 306,800 workers in major strikes (2025), 81.9% NLRB win rate, 71% Gallup approval. ALU defeated $4.3 million Amazon suppression (BCS executed). Fain May 2028 UAW expiration = pre-split into two tiers countdown. AI displacement (300M exposed) = triggering event. Phoenix alignment: 1902 Anthracite Strike at CY0. Telling people resistance is futile IS psychological warfare doctrine participation. The labor variable is the uncaptured physics-of-energy counter-force the suppression architecture ($400 million+/yr, Prop 22, algorithmic atomization) attempts to contain.
