been trying to find a way to say this succinctly but I’m having trouble: it annoys me when people conflate laziness and anti-productivity. If capitalism is not just buying and selling things then similarly anti-productivity is not just laziness. There is good work and good labor that needs doing. Idealizing a certain type of laziness and calling it anti-productivity annoys me because it suggests that doing anything = being productive and therefore evil and just no
@nathanlovestrees it makes sense to me. It's like how sometimes I'm sick of working for my employer because I'm disgusted with the system, but I find it refreshing to wash my own dishes or fold my sister's laundry so she can get a break
