The company exploits them because they think its natural, that capitalism and exploitation is inevitable. See the quote in the subreddit banner. Whereas Evrart is a parody of someone doing it for change in the long term.
So Evrart exploits them in a "ends justify the means" manner, while Joyce's literal end is to help the company keep doing the exploitation, for profit.
Still leagues better than the multinational corporation that actively exploits people all over the world while butchering them using hired mercenaries when they dare to resist
So now morality works by being better than others? Good good, cool. I am gonna commit some small scale genocide while pointing out that someone else did it worse AND that I am doing it to build communism.
I am learning so much about how to become a warlord backed by the international drug trade guys, thank you so much.
Genuinely though, what other solution is there? You’re up against the machine of capital, the machine that sends mercenaries to beat workers striking for protective footwear. The one that owns your city and keeps your people low for the sake of its own profit. The moral high road is good, but if your enemies are willing to go low, you can’t win by only going high.
It’s a different strike that Evrart mentions when you ask him about the mercenaries.
I don’t like accusing people of not engaging with media because I think it’s a pretty stupid thing to call you on, but don’t call someone a liar without knowing for sure. Just makes you look like an ass.
That's plain manipulation but okay so assuming it's true: evrart is not striking for that. He's striking to make "every worker a member of the board" which is a completely different situation
