No, the point is that the vast, vast majority of workers in most jobs are worse off than anyone at Twitter now.

i don't think thats a healthy way of looking at things, workers being treated unfairly/badly (even if they are privilege) isn't good because normalization of such treatment just makes it easier to do it to more vulnerable workers elsewhere

abuse is abuse, full stop

The majority of humanity is soul-crushingly poor and abused. That doesn't mean I should be able to punch you in the face without complaint or punishment.
No one is punching Twitter workers in the face, not even remotely close.
Indeed. It's almost like it was a metaphor.
A passive-aggressive metaphor, if you will.
