One of the most bizzare and frequent claims by capitalist wannabes is that you're free to quit your job if you don't like it. It's perhaps the most refutable statement a person could utter, plus an utterly sinister piece of propaganda (a joke wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a fist).
It's an idea meant to harm you and so I take an unkind view of its proponents. It pretends that some significant portion of the laboring masses do it primarily for fulfillment. It pretends that eight entire hours most of your living days isn't an excrutiating sacrifice to make. It pretends that employers and landlords haven't colluded to keep the majority of those working masses in a state of perpetual precarity, lest they rest a moment. It pretends there is upward mobility in store for everyone, that reward is proportional to effort, that any disadvange can be overcome [trivially, too].
Sowing discontent is important work. Everything up there an area of focus for me, but what are y'all saying about work? Are people learning about the enclosure of the commons? Has anybody had any luck spreading anti-work ideas? How do you defeat that argument?
