I think a drive to abolish sex as work while also supporting the sex worker and providing a safe venue for the fulfilment of sex as work until the contradiction can be resolved by the workers themselves is about the only option.
Also there's a huge assumption that a lot of people making that like you can go to a job fair and choose "sex worker" right now when in reality it's a heavy combination of people who do other labor and need to supplement that wage income with sex work and people who have been trafficked either as children or as immigrants and are essentially slaves.
Until the only version of sex work is "part time sex work", I don't even think this conversation is productive. No one's saying part time sex work is bad, it's the other kind that's horrifically common everywhere that's the problem.
