The big Bluesky thing now is "It's not manufacturing jobs you want, it's a stable job with a middle-class wage" or some variation.
As an anarchist I have to tell you that you shouldn't want any job. Not any prole labor and not any state assigned labor. If you consider a chosen occupation "a job" then you may want that but you shouldn't really want or need to be paid in money, at least money as we know it.

@richpuchalsky@mastodon.social I agree but I think there are a couple of aspects to it: - in general, whether or not you have your basic needs met should not be tied to whether or not you work - the reason why a lot of people currently feel like they _need_ a good paying manufacturing job is because we've made education private and expensive, so people don't have the option to switch into a service job if they didn't go to school - manufacturing jobs should pay well anyway (see point 1)
