Imagine if we actually stood up for ourselves to make a change. I have heard Americans defend not getting any mandatory vacation time, or any mandatory parental leave. They're the clowns of society. People who do that are part of the reason this subreddit has to fucking exist.
Why do people defend not getting any vacation, or parental leave? Their entire fucking identity revolves around work, and they've been brainwashed terrible things might happen to their economy if they are treated like human beings, instead of robots programmed to grind for their company.
They've been brainwashed by the news to defend our working style, and to believe that China or other countries having worse working laws make ours any less terrible.
Now imagine if they got their heads out of their asses, and we demanded changes like the Europeans do. Everyone needs the red pill to realize that corporations wouldn't care if you died on their own fucking property.
