So many people will have whatever set of values, and then also a 6 or greater figure salary… from one of the main causes of the problem.
Now in most instances it would be stupid to criticize a low income wage slave for Walmart or Starbucks for being a low income wage slave. You should do the opposite, sympathize with them, help them form a union, etc.
But the tech industry?
These people are much more likely to actually have the means to exit gracefully, downsize their life a bit, and not be a hypocrite.
‘Just following orders’ didn’t work at Nuremberg, and it doesn’t work for me either.
In some parts of the country, six figures isn’t even enough to support a wife and kids anymore.
Working class is working class, the key is solidarity. Unilateral sacrifices will just exhaust our most useful people. The first risk we take with our jobs needs to be organizing unions, or else we’ll just build a new capitalist economy.
Yeah that’s a whole insane aspect of this to me:
