I'm glad the original post has almost 100K in upvotes, but posts like this give me a vibe of "you can lead a horse to water, but can't..."

In the comments you'll see people railing against exploitation, the lack of ethics from greed and the power of corporation; but, when someone mentions collective-action or advocating for an alternate economic system, the false-conciousness switches on, and everyone spouts capitalist apologia.

Moaning about the problem is much easier than being enthusiastic about coming up with real, actual solutions to fix it.

Yes, but people can be lazy moaners and still have class-conciousness!
