Part of the problem with labor that we haven't yet discussed or maybe want to avoid due to the dissonance of the association with qualities as slaves is, we have a leadership class who acts more like elite slave masters than human beings with inherent dignity and decency. We have the class write the rules that they hold themselves (un)accountable for since the system was designed for them and enforced by them.

These are the people driving the rush and having a lot of say in the current AI and overall capitalist market behavior and sentiment. I think they're really mad and salty that when COVID happened the engineers got more remote and free and expressed the resentment more freely. This comment is probably putting me on a list somewhere or activating some hate program against me.
