    this has severe conservative energy. the fuck is this even supposed to mean? if you’re paid for it, it’s a job, dumbass. that’s literally the only metric.

      I think it’s trying to say that intellectual jobs are not jobs. Which is demonstrably not true.

      If all the investment bankers went away we’d probably be fine but if all the cyber security experts went away there’d be a big problem. The job is labour intensive, but one of them is much less important than the other.
