    the definitions of both words are almost the same. labor might mean harder and more physical work, but it's the same fuckin thing. they should have said anti-job or anti-employment. this is the importance of optics.

      No. Labor is just necessary human activity for people to survive. Work/jobs are tying labor to violence/deprivation

        work: activity involving mental or physical effort done in order to achieve a purpose or result.

        labor: work, especially hard physical work.

        job: a paid position of regular employment.

        you can try to change the definition of word, but it won't work and that optic is half the reason nobody took that "movement" seriously.

          We are literally arguing over semantic differences, do you understand the distinction that I am trying to make?

          I'm not trying to change definitions, this is how I was taught the distinction.

          that optic is half the reason nobody took that “movement” seriously.

          No one took communism seriously because we want to decouple labor from work/work from jobs/whatever terminology?

            No one took communism seriously

            no, anti-work

            i work/labor in my garden, it isn't my job. but, i do have to work and labor at my job.

              Yes, that is a correct way to use language.

              You also "go to work(noun)" and work is "wage labor"

              I am also using language correctly.

              We are using different terminology because language isn't universal, and we were probably explained the concepts using different language.

              I initially tried to correct you because I didn't think you understood the difference between labor/work work/job whatever/whatever.
