Yep. Wealth being withheld by capital so it can be a carrot dangled in front of the worker is exactly the structure the left wants to dismantle. And we see with the gig economy and heavy use of contractors at big tech how much labor has lost. Absurd to say they should be happy. Folks have no healthcare, no job security, no free time, and no workplace satisfaction.

If anyone wealthy is reading this:

Go find some podcasts with David Harvey, Richard Wolff, Nina Turner, Angela Davis, and Bree Newsome Bass. Learn from the left what they actually want. If that sounds absurd to you listen to a few talks by Jonathan Haidt first and then you will see why it matters. The left makes a lot of sense but you won’t know that if you believe what shallow outsiders say about the left.
