not sure if you're dismissing this but here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_worker_deaths_in_Unite...
the reason we have weekends and no child labor is because workers died for it.
the state, the capitalists desire control, obedience and extraction. worker well-being is a low priority. workers advocating for better pay, safe working conditions, etc were routinely killed.
why is it laughable to say that there is a need to resist the injustice and push for better working conditions and rights for all?
The temporarily embarrassed billionaires think they would do well without laws compensating at least some of the power differential.
What's the connection to the weekend?
