Good lord this community is cringe most of the time.
Yup, they want to live in fantasy land where they benefit from other people's work, but do none themselves. They're still children, but most of them will eventually grow up.
The rest will become communists, which is something I've been seeing a lot of on Lemmy.
Yeah the 40+ hours of manual labor I do producing 3 $25,000 machines in a week while being paid $1000 is totally not work at all.
Critiquing a system of exploitation is only possible if one is lazy and worthless, not something that typically and historically comes from those most oppressed under a given system.
Refusal to blindly submit to coercive hierarchies is a sign of immaturity, while blind obedience to that system makes you a real man. Only people who blindly accept their and the exploitation of their friends and family are adults.
What's the plan then?
