we were productive before we were subjugated. native americans were the most advanced ecologists/agriculturists in the world, and their knowledge was so foreign to europeans that the europeans saw no knowledge at all. the ghana empire was advanced in metalurgy in ways that we have yet to catch up to in modern time. wootz steel was reinforced with carbon nanotubes and its production in Pakistan ended some time around the british raj in india. we work for the silly numbers because our opressors gate access to food via the silly numbers. without the silly numbers, we would probably help and assist eachother and live in a post economic world.
Counterpoint: it’s only silly numbers that you get paid with. Why not just go to work without them?
because i need silly numbers myself to exchange them for food and shelter ;-;
I do all kinds of work I don’t get paid for. I only seek pay because of the stupid system that says I have to if I want to feed my cats.
