    We should deff push for it but let’s be real the real reason why we don’t get reduced hours despite higher productivity us because owners want to squeeze the plebs for every last drop of profit while maintaining a social control regime.

    People who are not anxious and over worked will start asking the hard questions about their material conditions.

    Parasite knows this won’t end well for him.

    So he decided to loot the slave until they can’t and then they will go to hide I to their bunkers as the country burns.

    And yet the normie sees nothing wrong thus far

      Don’t forget, when people have time and a little extra energy they will do things like vote, volunteer, develop themselves, improve their health, maybe run for office.

      These are all counter to the strategy to run everyone ragged, keep them on the treadmill producing and consuming until they drop. People who are exhausted won’t fight back.

        It’s amazing how even a 3 day weekend makes me more creative and energetic, and start thinking of my community and volunteering, then work comes back and i only look forward to the 5 hours before sleep again.
