Why do so many people think they are in a bullshit job?

because we ran a simple experiment in 2020 where we all (but a select few) just 'stopped', and there were no material Ill effects.

The lockdowns of 2020 were a proof that the world is absolutely fungible in regards to how we interact with it. We could change our opinions tomorrow and basically solve climate change. Most human labor and effort is just used kinda putzing around proving ones utility. It's mostly just bullshit to keep an extravaganza of consumption going, but 99% of it offers no material benefit to anyone.

So yeah, like, we got the data. Most jobs are bullshit. We could almost all not have jobs and the world would keep on spinning.
