Fucking hell people can’t help but get weird about how supposedly hard people should work.
We need to get the brainworms out of peoples heads that freak out over the idea of someone poor not having every inch of productivity squeezed out of them constantly.
It’s 2026, not 1917. A communist society of today should be far more capable and understanding of it’s peoples needs than it was over 100 years ago.
A main point is that even soviets made advancements for their time in how much they accommodated everyone of every need, like reading pat sloan’s soviet democracy literally made me cry. Even earlier utopian socialists championed what these can’t grasp 8 hour work, 8 hour leisure, 8 hour sleep, these people claim to be nom religious and for “automation” but they are for sure very Protestant in their worship of hard work
I worked harder in my first job as a dishwasher and later line cook than any of my blue collar “real” jobs. People doing shit retail and service work are some of the hardest workers out there, but that’s rarely viewed in such a light. Not to say those are the only forms of hard work, but just that any concept of it is surely misguided when viewed thru the lense of our capitalist society.
It’s the capitalists (real ones that actually own capital) that are genuinely afraid of hard work.
To them hard work is anything a masc person with a body built from constant gyming does. A disabled person can die on work floor by ut it wouldn’t be hard work for anyone
