You were speaking about someone else's real death, actually, and saying "better off dead than a slave." It comes across callous.
If everyone lived by your recommendation, all employees would kill themselves because their lives aren't worth living as a slave. Do you really think all employees qualia is so worthless that it's better they kill themselves? They should be further abused by slavery by being denied what joy they can squeeze from it? Don't you think this just helps the people who want to harm us and genocide us?
Don't you find a joy in spitefully opposing capitalists and slavers? Every time you enjoy life without paying a penny for it, you thwart capitalism. Every time you enjoy life outside of capitalist bullshit, you break the trance and lies it's trying to market to us.
Autonomy and power work like roots in a rock. Let the little tiny parts work through and the bigger ones will come too to break it apart. Seize the little powers you can and then work on bigger ones. Use your rights.
I was talking about one single person, myself. I literally posed it as myself being in this situation. You are obviously literate enough to write that whole diatribe that I’m not going to waste my time reading, but you are too stupid to notice that I wasn’t talking about anyone but myself. Get fucked dude lmfao
Gee, it's almost like what you said was really callous and you failed to make your meaning clear as I am not the only one to take issue with it. And now that it's been made clear how fucked up your statement was (since you aren't a slave and since you're alive, have never been a slave), you are refusing to participate. Fine, I accept that you quit and were wrong in how you communicated at minimum.
