    A good communist is also a good worker. Just a good worker that knows how to build consciousness with their co-workers and when to leverage their labor power against the boss.

        Well yeah, you're a good worker, but you use your labor to help others and not increase your personal productivity. Like if someone's tired you pick up their slack, if someone's having a hard time learning, you help them out, etc.

        That is way more important for building solidarity than being perceived as the "lazy" worker that everyone else has to pick up slack for.

            They ask those questions on the personality quizzes for a reason. The "correct" answer is that you bear down and get your work done, the "incorrect" answer is that you take your time, and the "dangerous" answer is that you help others to finish their work.

      Even though a lot of things suck about capitalism, I still take pride in my work under it. Plus I'm currently doing some research on jobs in healthcare, research, tech, and media. All of those industries have some meaning to me and porky's blows will be easier to cushion if I can at least tell myself I'm doing a net positive for the world or just doing something I find some fun in.
