2018-03-06 05:45:39 UTC

I just don't want my life to part of a rat race.

2018-03-06 05:46:02 UTC

All I care about is having the time and means to do as I please...freedom.

2018-03-06 05:46:13 UTC

Disability will be my freedom.

2018-03-06 05:47:05 UTC

Eternal struggle, cuck

2018-03-06 05:48:55 UTC

The difference is...I won't be struggling.

2018-03-06 05:49:38 UTC

No one should ever have to but...corruption creates slavery.

2018-03-06 05:50:17 UTC

The majority will always be restricted to the means to keep working in a slave-driven society enabled by corruption.

2018-03-06 05:51:49 UTC

We live in a world where money trumps morality.

2018-03-06 05:55:00 UTC

This is what true journalism looks like...

2018-03-06 05:55:48 UTC

Everyone in the military, especially command and control, needs to watch that video.

2018-03-06 05:57:02 UTC

It outlines the big picture that is the corruption, which is undermining the people completely while killing millions of others needlessly.

2018-03-06 05:59:35 UTC

The military industrial complex is the greatest threat to the people in world history.

2018-03-06 05:59:50 UTC

The governments are their gatekeepers.

2018-03-06 06:01:47 UTC

If this was all a game of chess, the collective private military contractors is the enemy king.

2018-03-06 06:01:53 UTC

I mean I get that it can seem like slavery since everyone expects you to work once you exist. But that's basically what life is, you have to work. Or provide for yourself or your family provides for you. But a lot of people can't really afford to have their family's support since they don't have much money. Fortunately for me my family is quite wealthy so I don't really need to worry about that. But I will work either way because I want to be productive for others, not just myself.

2018-03-06 06:02:46 UTC

But yeah I wouldn't put my job above my morality either. I have a lot of time to study so I might as well take my time and relax until I decide to work.

2018-03-06 06:02:51 UTC

Then you're the very rare person who works because they want to, not because you need to.

2018-03-06 06:02:57 UTC

You are the 1%.

2018-03-06 06:03:44 UTC

I doubt it's only 1% who work because they want to maybe a little more.

2018-03-06 06:03:59 UTC

No, you're the 1% that never has to work.

2018-03-06 06:04:16 UTC

But there is nothing intrinsic to life that mandates you perform wage labour.

2018-03-06 06:04:31 UTC

there's more than 1% that don't need to work. Well depends on what country.

2018-03-06 06:04:33 UTC

How about homelessness and death?

2018-03-06 06:04:36 UTC

Of course not in the world.

2018-03-06 06:04:44 UTC

to want to work, be useful, or reach self actualization doesnt at equate to wage labour

2018-03-06 06:04:48 UTC

1% of the world.

2018-03-06 06:04:50 UTC

That's what we turned it into.

2018-03-06 06:05:01 UTC

Not all of us turned into that.

2018-03-06 06:05:01 UTC

And it is infact a form of coerced labour

2018-03-06 06:05:18 UTC

Not literal slavery, but coerced nonetheless

2018-03-06 06:05:31 UTC

There are people who either can't or won't work...they are homeless or on disability...unless they're wealthy.

2018-03-06 06:05:43 UTC

I don't want to work just for the money, simply because I don't really need money. I want to work if it benefitted others.

2018-03-06 06:05:47 UTC

Coerced labor is slavery.

2018-03-06 06:05:54 UTC

It's a nice way of saying forced.

2018-03-06 06:06:04 UTC

coerced labor is labor you perform, under coercion.

2018-03-06 06:06:11 UTC

It isnt intrinsically slavery

2018-03-06 06:06:17 UTC

because you technically have a false choice

2018-03-06 06:06:19 UTC

Just like signing paperwork under duress.

2018-03-06 06:06:22 UTC

"Work or starve"

2018-03-06 06:06:26 UTC

Exactly.

2018-03-06 06:06:28 UTC

yes but if you're a capitalist,

2018-03-06 06:06:29 UTC

That's slavery.

2018-03-06 06:06:34 UTC

you pretend thats a choice

2018-03-06 06:06:43 UTC

Which obviously its not,

2018-03-06 06:06:48 UTC

but I image E is a capitalist

2018-03-06 06:06:51 UTC

or wants to be one

2018-03-06 06:06:59 UTC

He wants capitalism because he is wealthy.

2018-03-06 06:07:07 UTC

It's within his interests.

2018-03-06 06:07:13 UTC

Not the people around him.

2018-03-06 06:07:26 UTC

The majority do not want capitalism.

2018-03-06 06:07:27 UTC

But thats why I mentioned work doesnt have to be wage labour

2018-03-06 06:07:39 UTC

Which is exactly why I want to work for others. Out of my own interests.

2018-03-06 06:07:42 UTC

to say people "Want to work" isnt to be simplified to them working to not starve

2018-03-06 06:07:52 UTC

Simply because Im a selfish capitalist pig of course

2018-03-06 06:07:55 UTC

they want to work, because people want to feel useful

2018-03-06 06:08:03 UTC

It's slavery if any person does not want to work.

2018-03-06 06:08:12 UTC

I wouldn't call it

2018-03-06 06:08:14 UTC

that

2018-03-06 06:08:26 UTC

Just like you wouldn't call government tyrannical.

2018-03-06 06:08:27 UTC

That's just life. You have to work.

2018-03-06 06:08:27 UTC

Well I think there is a relevant distinction to be made between coerced labor and slavery

2018-03-06 06:08:36 UTC

and you dont have to work

2018-03-06 06:08:37 UTC

"You have to work".

2018-03-06 06:08:37 UTC

its not life

2018-03-06 06:08:39 UTC

Slavery.

2018-03-06 06:08:45 UTC

its only life if the capitalist class says it is

2018-03-06 06:08:48 UTC

we're free to oppose that

2018-03-06 06:08:58 UTC

Only you'll then claim its somehow natural

2018-03-06 06:08:58 UTC

You do have to. It's part of evolution and how we evolved. If nobody worked we wouldn't progress.

2018-03-06 06:09:04 UTC

No it isnt.

2018-03-06 06:09:09 UTC

Proof?

2018-03-06 06:09:11 UTC

We did not evolve to work for the sake of working.

2018-03-06 06:09:15 UTC

You first, you're making the claim.

2018-03-06 06:09:16 UTC

^

2018-03-06 06:09:21 UTC

Never said that

2018-03-06 06:09:25 UTC

Yes, but you did

2018-03-06 06:09:28 UTC

I never said people work for the sake of working

2018-03-06 06:09:35 UTC

"You do have to. It's part of evolution and how we evolved. If nobody worked we wouldn't progress."

2018-03-06 06:09:38 UTC

Yes

2018-03-06 06:09:42 UTC

We have to work

2018-03-06 06:09:43 UTC

what do you think this implies

2018-03-06 06:09:44 UTC

as a species

2018-03-06 06:09:46 UTC

to survive

2018-03-06 06:09:50 UTC

except we dont, not in the way you mean

2018-03-06 06:09:53 UTC

i.e. wage labor

2018-03-06 06:10:05 UTC

hence why wage labour didnt exist prior to capitalism

2018-03-06 06:10:11 UTC

It implies just what I said. We have to work. I never claimed we had to work for the sake of working. That's nonsense

2018-03-06 06:10:13 UTC

because it in no way is natural to our circumstance

2018-03-06 06:10:24 UTC

Again, not in the way you mean

2018-03-06 06:10:33 UTC

We only have to feed, cloth, and house ourselves...not spend 200 hours a week slaving away for someone else's profits.

2018-03-06 06:10:36 UTC

Ok what do I mean then?

2018-03-06 06:10:37 UTC

we're talking in the context of capitalism where the number one mode of work is that of wage labour

2018-03-06 06:10:41 UTC

wage labour is manufactured

2018-03-06 06:10:46 UTC

^

2018-03-06 06:10:52 UTC

it is in no way natural or the mode in which we all "have to work"

2018-03-06 06:10:55 UTC

what you mean,

2018-03-06 06:10:59 UTC

is we all have to do "something"

2018-03-06 06:11:01 UTC

Some jobs don't require you to work 200 hours a week

2018-03-06 06:11:04 UTC

whether that be farm, intellectual work.
