They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, in this case, we’re told everything we need to know about everyone in this image in three: “workers against work.”
The modern regressive left has until recently been very subversive in its messaging. Building on the Fabian socialist model from the early 20th century, socialist movements claimed to represent the underclass, which they say has been exploited by the evil capitalist class that controls everything.
The banner in this image is far more honest about what leftists actually want — which is a society that allows them to live their lives without having to do…well…anything. This is what “freedom” means to the hard left — freedom from responsibility or discipline.
Freedom in the capitalist sense is intrinsically tied to responsibility in that one cannot exist without the other. In the west, your freedom extends to your personal agency, rather than a promise for someone else’s resources. This is the real philosophical question which divides the right and left today, and its clear which approach is more grounded in reality.
