Serious question: what actually is the value of hard work?
@doleo @Ulrich_the_Old
It is a concept that supposedly is needed in order for us to succeed. As a concept, it is used to bury the fact that many of our “successful” citizens (read rich) actually inherited their monies or “knew someone”. It is also used to explain poverty…. That is, if you are not successful, it is your own fault because you did not work hard enough.
Basically victim blaming and on the flip side of the coin pretending that the presence of wealth proves that they deserve what they own.
It’s not victim blaming to say something is your fault for choosing the wrong parents to be born to! Sheesh!
A ruined body probably
It was common for european colonizers to say this about indigenous people, basically meaning that they don’t participate in the world economy. Or, said another way, they’re not being exploited for profits by said european colonizers, which is obviously bad.
It all ties in that neoliberal belief that pure meritocracy is real, a desirable society trait, and achievable.
Explain pierre and meritocracy? You will never ever make me believe his rise to leader of the conservative party was due to merit…
You’re looking at it backwards, he’s the head of the party so he must have worked very hard.
Re-read my comment, you may have misinterpreted me 👍
Your hard work makes rich people richer.
It’s Calvinism.

To people like him, it’s valuable for people to get used to being submissive, learn the futility of questioning authority, and earn just enough to shut up and not be a “financial burden” on the country.
They mean the willingness to work.
And that fucking clown is obviously a racist, just ignore him.
I knew it as the opposite of lazy. it did not mean you were overworked, just that you were self motivated. But I think that terminooogy has changed a lot with corporate expectationa
