To the extent we have it now? Hell no, I do agree with you. No one should have billions while there are people working 3 jobs to pay rent. But, to the point that the person building houses deserves the same as a clothing store employee ? Fuck no. If you think they do, your not being real at all. There are levels of value people bring to society. Its always been that way. Its not black and white. Nuance on Lemmy is often disregarded. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 1 point 3 months ago (1 child) As someone in the real world Everyone lives in the real world, dipshit. Are you a literal child who hasn't learnt that other people are real yet? But, to the point that the person building houses deserves the same as a clothing store employee ? Fuck no. Why the fuck not? They both perform demanded labour. I can only assume this bizarre statement is motivated by sexism. There are levels of value people bring to society. Its always been that way. For example, people like you bring no value to society, and we would be better off if you died. Nuance on Lemmy is often disregarded.
