Why is being useless a good thing, pls elaborate
Cause it means all the work is already being done and there's enough to go around and meet everyone's needs.
That's a terrible behavior to enable, that's like exactly the opposite of what we want
No, we want everyone to have enough, and to be able to take it easy when the work is done. We don't want people forced to work when it isn't helpful.
Work is always helpful, that's why it exists
Work isn't always helpful. If my partner got out of bed to clean the dishes or vacuum the floor at 3AM I'd be very cranky. Sometimes work is bad.
...bro it's cause you said 3am in this example, think this through.
You said work is always helpful. What do you think always means?
idk if you're trolling or not, but if you think doing the dishes or vacuuming is not helpful, or is bad, then I'm scared to see your living space.
I can't work due to a disability, am I useless?
yes
