I know a lot of people who work out during their 2H lunch break because they don't have the time otherwise.

If you can't take that 2H lunch break consider if you're being treated like a slave.

There is another problem here: eating and working out doesn't go together well.
You workout before you eat. Here. Solved.
So not taking a 2-hour lunch is equivalent of being mutilated, starved, raped, humiliated, dismembered, killed with impunity?

I think your values are a little off...

Straw man. yes I would call it modern slavery.
Slavery still exists, so you need another name, like maybe "hourly employee".

E.g.,

No need, wage slavery is an already established term

The options here are to either exercise on an empty stomach or to exercise right after eating. Both are frankly garbage options.
Eat breakfast.
That misses the point here. You roughly have your lunch break when your body is close to done with breakfast.
Excuses
