    As far as I can tell, the only significant benefit that modern “slaves of capitalism” (if you will), have is that, compared to actual slaves, we can’t be beaten, sold, or outright murdered on a whim.

    The physical abuses are no longer allowed.

    Mental and emotional abuse is fine though, as long as it’s filtered through a thin coat of “corpo-speak” so that HR can rubber stamp it.

      You’re missing starvation, homeless, oh and, the fact that police do all that shit you deny being done…
