There are plenty of jobs that are actively detrimental to society, which really aren't valid at all.

Like, is landlord a real and valid job?

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

No, that is not a job. The same way "bank" is not a job.

It's not work or labor, but it's a job. One that provides negative value to society.
