A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

As soon as you got your first billion, you pretty @uch can’t lose it anymore on the market.

We not talking about billionaires. That's the whole point. You're so focused on "class analysis" and fitting into your predefined terms that you can't even see that the whole point of the discussion is that there's not a clear delineation between classes, which is precisely why "middle class" is important.

You’ve brought up “human nature” and I refuted your argument

In what way have you refuted anything?

U sure?

there's not a clear delineation between classes

Yes, there is. Working class, owning class. If there's not a clear delineation between classes, your definitions are whack.

In what way have you refuted anything?

By bringing up Bookchin, Graeber and Kropotkin. More of a statement that you've actually made about human nature.

If you disagree, then please elaborate why "people like [me]" don't understand human nature.
