- seandougall 9y agoBut they don't, unless I missed it, address the death toll of large-scale, human-powered construction projects like the Panama Canal (5,609 dead). To me it reads like a romanticization of brutal working conditions, and waving aside the issue of slavery by saying "but we can make it fun!" doesn't really help.
- Turing_Machine 9y agoNo, they don't, and yes, I did. Bikini babes aren't going to make someone pick cotton by hand in the Alabama sun for 12 hours a day. That job won't ever be "fun" and "exciting". To be blunt, it sucks major ass. Handwaving doesn't count as "specifically addressing". Sorry.
