"none of us here are actual wage slaves"

Bro is just cosplaying as one

[–] narr1@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago

It might have been a misunderstanding between how being unemployed doesn't rule out being a wage slave, even if you live in a country with a relatively high standard of living because the means of production are still capitalistic, you just don't have any income and the government tries its best to not give you any also. Or I used the term in a too abstract of a manner elsewise. Or a combination of all and some others.
