Those views seem inconsistent unless those people also disagree with compensated labor.
There’s already a type of degradation in a conventional job: someone having power over you that you can’t question, you have to degrade yourself by being agreeable to nonsense, you have to whore out your time and attention and energy, etc.
Spending 100 days in isolation is less degrading to me than all the things people take for granted at even their cushy software job, they’re just used to it.
How many of you are forced to sit in on absolutely banal Zoom meetings yet grandstanding about what someone else wants to do for $500k?
- antasvara 4y agoThere's a spectrum of embarrassment/torture between "100 days in a circle" and "sitting in boring Zoom meetings," wouldn't you agree? A person that has no problem with paid labor but does have an issue with 100 days in a circle could have a consistent view if they believe that the former doesn't rise to the level of "torture" or "embarrassment."
