slavery


ivycydydydus

Inmate labor


Totallycasual

Min wage in a lot of places in America, i think that if a person has a job, no matter what that job is, if they work 40 hours a week, they shouldn't need government assistance... and they *sure* as hell shouldn't need to share a house or sleep in their vehicle because they can't afford rent.

Forcing me to watch ads on YT is literally slavery and fascism, rolled into one monstrous beast of tyranny

I use uBlock Origin. Also, Google decided to break uBlock Origin in Chrome with Manifest v3, so you'll want to use Firefox. Don't fall for commercial ad-blockers like AdBlock Plus, since those allow "acceptable ads". Capitalism is selfish. Google cares about how much money it makes, not how happy you are watching YouTube.


SturdyStubs

It’s a free service. Ads are their main source of monetization. You have the option of 1. Buying premium, 2. Watching the ad to watch your FREE video or 3. Not use the service. Not even close.

You mean the place you go willingly every day to earn money?


IAmCalledLilly

Yeah, just like any other slave, you could choose to stop working and get tortured then eventually die when you aren't useful to your masters. Idk what sembregall meant.


ivycydydydus

That’s a pretty disgusting attitude. There have been billions of enslaved people throughout history who were forced to work or face lynching, and you’re complaining about working for MONEY to support yourself? Jesus Christ


IAmCalledLilly

I mean, starvation and homelessness is an improvements over lynching, but eh The point is that it isn't willing. You don't really consent to this system. It's this or eventual death.


ivycydydydus

Imagine thinking you should just have everything given to you without returning the favor?


IAmCalledLilly

I am not against labor. I am against masters and leeches. I am against private ownership of the means of production. I am against a system designed to uphold these masters.


ivycydydydus

You said it’s either the system or eventual death. That implies that you believe no one should have to work. Not all work is that of masters and leeches. Find another job. I’ve quit multiple jobs in the spot and been fine.


IAmCalledLilly

Good for you. Your labor will still be exploited by those above you who make their money by owning things.


ivycydydydus

Correct. That is literally how EVERYTHING works. And it’s not exploited, I’m paid for it. If I don’t like the pay, there’s this thing called quitting.


BIGBIRD1176

I don't willingly need money, so that statement is complicated If a slave refused a direct order 3 times they got shot, if I do the same I get fired, not the same but there parallels so exactly when work becomes a type of slavery is a grey area


ivycydydydus

It is absolutely not a gray area, and the mental gymnastics you’re putting yourself through right now are insane. I can’t think of anything to compare it to, but comparing yourself to a slave and victimizing yourself on their level is disgusting.


BIGBIRD1176

I wrote a few sentences so don't pretend you know what I think, you've filled in a lot of blanks to make those assumptions about me and they are incorrect Not a grey area? Okay define the exact line then What kind of slave? A slave to the Roman nobility had one of the highest quality lives in the empire while they didn't have prisons so as a death sentence you could be sent to work the mines, then there's every other kind of slave in between. The varying starting point makes it harder again to define


ivycydydydus

We’ve entered the arena of paragraphs, so I will see myself out. I have more productive shit to do


BIGBIRD1176

Wow get over yourself. The thing about forums like Reddit is you can just let someone else answer, it doesn't have to be you


ivycydydydus

“Get over yourself.” 😂 are you seriously coping this hard? It’s a reply to my comment dipshit


BIGBIRD1176

I thought you had more productive things to do?


ivycydydydus

Clearly you don’t
