The broader condition of wage-labor is (in the absence of unions) of course though that you agree to some form of top-down power relation or starve and die. Unions contest this broader premise as opposed to your specific one.

I reject your strawman argument. FAANG engineers will hardly starve and die if they choose to work somewhere else.

Or start your own business and find your own way to provide for youself outside of the existing system?

The broader condition of society is that you need to produce something of value for them if you desire others to provide things of value to you.
