It’s an Elon post so obviously he’s just bullshitting, but I’ve seen this kind of sentiment among Amerikkkans broadly throughout my life, from the days of the Global War Of Terror up to now. It’s even a common insult/comeback in media for basically any mildly disruptive behavior. Why the fuck is there this mindset that the only reason someone would ever protest or challenge the government because they don’t have a job? Or that somehow having a job places you under a magical trance that makes you Fall In Line? For a country that emphasizes “”“freedom”“” USians sure love the idea of being subservient for money.
Yet every chud talks a big game about passive income and retiring at 40 because they think working is for losers.
Absolutely. The judgemental chud work ethics only applies to the proletariat. They admire the bourgeoisie and dream of becoming bougies themselves. Different rules apply to the owning class, there is no requirement for them tho work, they are assumed to be contributing more than any worker to society, simply by making more money than them.
That’s true but another chud fantasy is the big truck, which is a masculine signifier of work. It’s bastardized, but trucks are used for work (or at least they used to be) and that makes the chud’s brain light up.
