It's easy to ignore automation right now, it's only replacing low-end jobs like cashiers and baristas. But what happens 10, 20, 50 years down the line when software bots replace your white collar desk job? What happens when they replace doctors and lawyers? How are you going to make a living without some sort of UBI or welfare? I've seen some conservatives say "oh the job market will adapt, it always has". But how? Are we going to regulate automation and force companies to employ actual people? If not, who is going to hire you when a robot can do your job better and cheaper?
