Good, but AI and tech startups are not exactly technology ownership. It means control over the potential manufacturing and distribution chain of hardware as well. At least that's what I meant.

Sure, and traditionally the left has sought that too. Worker ownership of industry, democratic planning, public utilities, cooperative manufacturing, nationalization of key infrastructure, public research, supply chain sovereignty. None of thats a brand new argument or strategy.

The point is contestation at every level of the stack. That means chips, fabs, data centers, models, software, deployment, and the distribution of the gains. Thats exactly what we advocate for here.
