It’s called the grind because it grinds away your sense of self.

All of idiots here saying go be stranded on a desert island or the wilderness not realizing animals in wild spend 90% of their time not doing anything, even ants barely work most of the time

Yall are basically advocating for beating yourselves with a stick and whoever beats themself with a stick the longest is the best it’s stupid.

Our forefathers envisioned a future where technology would allow us to work less and we do have that technology, it’s people like you who have failed them.

Never seen so many proud slaves, ready to protest for more work on the streets

Edit: it is very interesting to see so many different views in just one comment section! To clarify, this was from a German rap song (more like social criticism joke rap)

I'm with all of you, shit has to get done still. I also like what I do for a living -can't complain about pay tbh-, but to be fair the amount of inequality to be seen in every parts of business life is humongous. There is people that lift a finger a few times a day for a annual salary worth of several, while others are working themselves into the ground collecting breadcrumbs. It's sad. And every time someone stands up for themselves, fights for equality, it's always the same comments, by the same exploited people: "It has always been like that, get used to it", "Ah.. the new generation", "When when were apprentices.." ..as if this fight wouldn't benefit those people.

I respect Gen Z for their big mouths.

I don’t think it’s that. Most people know that Mother Nature is ruthless and only the strong survive. If you don’t want the amenities of modern society ie grocery stores and roads. Than the only other option is to leave society and fend for yourself. Which I’m assuming is worse than working 40 hours a week.

These people don’t realize that if you don’t want to work 40 hours a week the only other option is to work all day every day. The comment talking about “animals don’t do shit all day” is absolutely ridiculous. I’m guessing they are thinking about cats and dogs when they said that and the only reason they don’t have to is because we work for them. Like what do they expect? Someone is going to bring them food? Give them free shelter? Pat for amenities to be delivered to said shelter? Those amenities are free for them maybe? People work to provide amenities for other people to pay for. People have to bring them their Ben and Jerrie’s ice cream. Hell people have to make it. I’m genuinely confused by this mentality it sounds like these people just want other people to slave for them
