“Don't compete! — competition is always injurious to the species, and you have plenty of resources to avoid it!”

All competition is now forbidden.
If you engage in it, please report to the nearest reeducation center immediately.
People making a game out of clothes washing, competing against themselves, is completely fine.
But when they start competing against other clothes washers, and also they happen to be washing clothes as a job, then the "friendly competition" starts inculcating a viewpoint of workers seeing each other, and not their employers, as the enemy.
Corporations love gamifying their work environments, because it teaches their employees to constantly try to outdo each other, and in doing so they overlook the very possibility of unifying to push for better pay and working conditions.
One of the anti union strategies employers use is literally to make the workplace more competitive.
Competition is training to struggle for resources in a scarce environment. Our scarcity nowadays is mainly man-made.

My problems with competition stem from us being in the capitalist stage of history, and therefore everything must be competitive because the ideology of growth for growth's sake in capitalism requires it.
The fact that you equate competition to joy, as if taking it away takes away the pleasure of eating good food, really shows how deep into the ideology you are.
you think playing something competitively with your friends for fun is the same thing as your employer forcing you to compete with your co-worker? lmao not even mentioning that while team sports also have competitiveness, they are also cooperative sports
either this is a bit or you're actually delusional
