His open anger has been pretty surprising, I feel like the past year has seen more and more of the owner class going totally masks off with anger when the peasants don’t just get in line to follow orders.

Apart from Spez and Musk, what other examples are there?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Those are probably the highest profile examples.

Everything else is way smaller scale, and often more about the tone than even what is being said. There's a general "how dare anyone push back" or a complete failure to understand what life is like (some of this overlaps with the "ok boomer" stuff).

I'd point to:

  • Martha Stewart's rant about RTO
  • Many many of the "nobody wants to work anymore" rants we've seen
  • The tenor of Starbuck's anti-union actions
  • The communications I've seen from my (large) company and those at friends' (obviously not going to list which)

It's not like I've been keeping a list but those are what come to mind first.

Probably it's all linked to the post-virus epiphanies about working conditions that have lead to things like the great resignation, the concept of quiet quitting (which is a bullshit term for me) and in general a bigger conscience of how work affects life
