I can't believe we turned "Laptop Worker" into a term of derision. We now have the tech and business models to allow millions of people to make a living in ways unthered to a farm plot, assembly line,, or cubicle. That's very cool! Do not project your weird yearning for the mines on to me.

It reminds me a lot of the "young men don't go to war anymore" complaint. War objectively sucks! It is a very bad thing to experience! Even US troops, with overwhelming firepower and superior logistics do not generally have a great time doing it! It is good we put fewer people through it.

yeah thats not the problem there, that problem is massive propaganda that has convinced much of america that we must maintain dominance over foreign enemies at all cost
