When the slave claims his chains

[-] Luminocta@lemm.ee 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

So what should one do then? I mean surely you have an answer.

Keep in mind. I am confident that hearing something you don't like doesn't mean it's not true.

Unionize. It's the only proven way to improve working conditions.

Finally someone actually saying something.

But really just do something. Join a union, point out corruption. It's great to see so many people disagreeing with my comment just to upvote something absolutely empty but cool sounding like "a slave claims his chains". There is no slave here, don't make me look like a victim of a system I'm not a part of.

I truly feel like people here just want to whine about "the system" but don't dare speak up or do something about it. You have the power to change it. If you don't make that choice, then start accepting it. At least then you don't have to spend so much time on the internet whining about how hard it is to work after a holiday.

To be honest, I upvoted that too but can understand you're looking for something more concrete. They're referring to wage slavery, but awareness and unionization are each just one step towards abolishing it.

I think it's fair to vent and complain. Not everybody who identifies a problem needs to have an answer.

Just because you dont like what you see, doesn't mean you should try to find rational justifications to it. There are not.

What is to be done, indeed

Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.

Rules:

  1. Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.

  2. Respect one another.

  3. All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.

  4. Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.

Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.
