Yep, that's new slavery. Slavery, people accept as being the "core of the civilization", because it's called "work" and you "we have to work to make the world turn".

But that's a false argument. We, of course, have some duties and responsabilities toward human society and we need to be active not to let it die etc... But who decided we had to work 40 hours a week and sacrifice half of our only life over a job we don't like to keep an absurd system rolling ; a system poorly distributing the labour over the "human ressources" (us) when 70% of the active population work too much (depression, stress, fatigue) and the 30% left is being told "there's no job for you", when it's just obviously a matter of "we're not giving you a job because we don't want to give a salary (but you can work for free if you want, slave)".

And since jobs are man-made scarce, people who work will do whatever the fuck they have to to keep their job, because if they don't they'll be replaced.

Reject the system, think about other ways. Politic is larger than what we see on TV
