Having to work is not slavery, good god. That's incredibly insulting to those who actually are slaves.

instead of getting food and housing in exchange for labor.

You do get food and housing in exchange for labor, it's money.

You have options to fight back and get higher wages, like unionization. You can choose where to work which is NOT an illusion of choice, it's a real one.

Your punishment for refusing to work

There is no form of society that can function without people working.

We are not slaves by quite some stretch, as much as Republicans want that back. "Wage slavery" is a fun term, but it doesn't actually reflect the variety of options people have available to them that real slaves do not.

As long as we can unionize, the chains cannot bind us.

Is this meme intentionally ignoring the massive progress on lgbt rights in the last decades or no? It's an overly simplistic representation of a very complicated issue

#1 reason I'll never visit china, as much as there seems to be amazing things to see there

Wow, people think about their own countries more than other countries. Who would've thought!

That issue came about because of poor procedure and poor enforcement. Instead of being "you are fired immediately if camera is screwed with" it was "yeah you're chillin"
