minus-squareirmoz@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYour point is irrelevant. We all know children working existed before capitalism. No one suggested it didn’t.
minus-squareSuperSleuth@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year ago Sorry, why should a middle schooler be doing physical labor? This sounds like nightmare capitalism. That kinda implies capitalism is the cause, no? Or will you just completely ignore that and continue to misinterpret my comments.
minus-squareirmoz@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year ago…no? That’s why the word “nightmare” is there. If it were solely being blamed on capitalism, they’d just say “that sounds like typical capitalism”. It’s like the “toxic masculinity” argument all over again. No, saying “blue coat” does not mean all coats are blue.
