The goal of modern, blood sucking, publically traded business is to exploit as much value from employees as possible for the smallest wage possible.

Unless you work for a coop or a genuinely benevolent small business, and in the US that’s rarely you, your goal ought to be to provide the least value possible for the highest wage possible, which is very doable once hired to a salaried position for a good long time, because big corporate is almost as incompetent as it is greedy. You can usually even do this while endearing yourself to your higher ups, as long as you fake caring about the bullshit corporate culture to their faces, while undermining the organization where you safely can. Not full on sabotage or fraud, just thinking about the better, faster way to do things, and finding the opposite way in which to do them, etc.

They don’t operate on honesty or integrity, and if we try to fight them on those terms, we’ll be placed where all the honest, discontented peasants that fight back earnestly end up, in a cardboard box under a freeway.

The class war was fully lost half a century ago. This is class occupation. All we have is guerilla tactic resistance.
