Baby.

Sure, you had to pay your lord your tithe crop, but after that, your time was yours

Working day is far logner in capitalism

Have you read too much propaganda?

Depends on the job and no it was a lot worse than back then

And the working day is far greater than it's been in hunter gatherer societies, where they had a leisure economy

No, it wasn't. The only difference back then was they had no medicine

most jobs are certainly not longer than most jobs back in feudal times

I'm sorry, you've never worked a day in your life have you?

The working day isnt far greater than hunter gatherer societies at all

You said on the chat you lived a rich sheltered lif eand worked for fun.

That's horseshit

Hunter gatherer socieities were the original leisure economy

I have and I dont have to to know that hunter gatherers worked under far worse conditions

They worked on average a 3 hour day.

Human life quality went way down with agricultural revolution

Grains are fucking awful for health

And the difference back then was lack of advancement and less materialism as well as less skepticism etcc

keeps you sick, but alive enough to work

it was 3 hours a day at all

It was

David Graeber and the whole field of anthropology proves this

And no I never said I worked for fun, last time I worked I was forced to and it was long like the average for adult but not longer than back then

Even slaves lived better lives than northern factory workers, which Southern slave owners used to justify slavery

🤔

the average adult has been working longer and longer and going into more and more debt just to maintain the same income

Not at all

At the same time rates in mental illness and drug addiction have gone up

People are working 2 jobs, 1 full time 40 hour shift plus another 40 hours UBERing.

and they aren't doing UBER for fun.

Isnt David Graeber an anarchist?

yes

Lol

And mental illnesses and drug addiction didnt happen because of that

it happened because of shitty and sheltered ways of bringing kids up

Mental illness and drug addiction have been around since forever.

So why did the culture just shift?

work was a lot worse decades ago and they didnt have as much as a mental illness problem as we do now

why hasn't shitty sheltered ways of bringing kids up happeend long ago?

I told you
