Even cavemen must eat, so they hunt and forage. And yet they have no capitalists. So who's enslaving them? No one. Their biological necessity dictates they must eat.
Modern people also must eat. Most chose to get a job. I suppose they could instead move to forest and hunt a forage for food.
So, all those "evil parasitic capitalists" had done, is to give them another method of survival. And if you compare lifestyle of cavemen and modern men, its clear, we're better of with capialists.
The entire "argument" of wage-slavery lunatics stand on simple lie (or just not knowing better): That capitalists are somehow responsible for biological reality. "Argument" goes as such:
- Slavery is compelled labor.
- The employee working a shitty job is compelled to work that shitty job.
- Thus, the employee working a shitty job is a wage slave.
But you're just using ambiguity of word "compel" to hide the fact that its biological reality, not capitalists who compel anyone. Your argument actually looks like this:
- Slavery is compelled labour.
- The employee working a shitty job is compelled by reality to work that shitty job.
- (Hidden sleight of hand premise) "Your bodily needs compel you"
is the same as "entrepreneurs compel you".
- Entrepreneurs compel the employee to work a shitty job.
- Thus, the employee working a shitty job is a wage slave.
A person having to work to avoid hunger (first meaning) is entirely different from a person having to work to avoid being brutalized, kidnapped or killed at the hands of another person (second meaning). You rely on the first meaning of "to compel" (to which we're all subject), to deliberately elicit in other people the emotional response, mental imagery and moral revulsion that normal people associate with the second meaning of "to compel": actual slavery.
It's emotional manipulation.
You're just blaming inescapable biological realities on people you hate.
Actual, correct argument looks like this:
- Slavery is labour compelled by another person.
- The employee working a shitty job is compelled, not by another person, but by reality to work that shitty job.
- Thus, the employee working a shitty job is
not a wage slave.
