Just because you're part of what is called "Labor aristocracy" in Marxist discourse doesn't mean you can't recognize the exploitation inherent to the system.
You don't need to be on the losing side of an unjust system to recognize the system as unjust.
- rglover 5y agoSo quit.
- malermeister 5y agoSounds like the entire argument went way over your head. Quitting doesn't change anything about the inherently exploitative relationship of labor and capital.
- rglover 5y agoI'm not allowed to reply to you directly but responding to your response to "so quit," okay, go live on a commune then. Live your values and demonstrate to the world why your way of life is better.
- malermeister 5y agoLiving on a commune is giving up. The current order must be overthrown, everything else is just implicitly endorsing exploitation.
