no, definitely not

so that's a start

if it's not normal, was it normal in the past?

it is the model of civilization that leaves people feeling hopeless and succumbing to their chains

as in, were they in a normal state?

when was the last time people felt this way

in any civilization

surely we should have some record of it

in any financially and politically oppressive government it is this way

even if its in the form of myth

that's a hypothesis, maybe I accept it but

what's the basis?

my point of view is, alienation is exceptional

even in the throes of decay, alienation was never a feature of the human experience

do you accept that?

people working 9-5 jobs know deep down what they do is stupid, but they go through a series of mental gymnastics to rationalize it internally so that they dont have to face reality

and they have plenty of distractions to help them with this

sex and the city, green day, the walking dead, etc.

maybe that's half true, is the life of a family man, a salary man really so unhealthy and pointless?

and yes i do

yes it is

as the saying goes: jobs are jail

I think that's pretty silly, on its face

jobs can be jail and that can still be wrong

jobs are jail, but work is not

obligations are jail

there's everything right about being a family man obviously, but when your life is controlled by an employer and your very livelihood is in thrall to it, then there exists a control mechanism

there is freedom in the yoke, you serve your family and free yourself

human beings, as well as all creatures, desire freedom naturally

whereas if you attempt a different kind of "freedom", an absolute one

escape your obligations

you instead fall under a different yoke, of your ego etc.

obligations =/= working a dead end job thinking you're doing good for the wold

they desire freedom, accepted, but what is freedom

I think it's pretty obvious that most people don't work thinking about the big picture

THE POINT IS THAT WE CAN MAKE LIFE MORE SIGNIFICANT FOR THE SALARY MAN

BY MAKING JOBS BETTER

BY REMOVING UNNECESSARY LABOR

sure, sure

INCLUDING THAT MANDATED TO PAY FOR THE TAX BASE THAT FUNDS LEFTIST PROGRAMS

REMOVE LEFTISM, LIFE GETS BETTER
