Comment on We live wasted lives

It would be nice to not be alienated at work. It would also be nice to have some kind of say in what we do 80% of the time we’re awake. A more democratized workplace would do a lot.

I 100% agree, I’m just saying that life today is much more fulfilling for the average person than it was for, like, the average 13th century French peasant. The fact that we have access to this feeling of ennui in the first place is thanks to our safe and comfortable lifestyle.
Shit could be better, and we should fight to make it so. I just think we should also appreciate that our quality of life is nearly unrivaled throughout history, and even the modern world.
