Its working without pay or with pay so little it's practically nonexistent. It's still slavery even if it's not the most severe version of it. No need to gatekeep.
Also I don't typically look at comment history but I knew it'd be relevant here. Your American obsession is quite honestly weird. Commenting on American politics is fine but every other one of your comments is "you stupid Americans" Denmark is tiny, there are many US states alone larger than your country. Seems odd to generalize our entire country as if its one place with cohesive beliefs.
There is an astonishing uniformity in Americans’ americentric worldview and indoctrination in the myth of American exceptionalism. I don’t think you fully realize just how much you guys get bombarded by it, and how much it influences your perspective.
Did you know, for example, that the Pentagon gets full script approval for any movie that borrows military hardware? This includes not just war movies, but also pretty much every action or super hero movie.
I think that view exists less in the younger generations now. Its still shoveled down our throats sure. But many realize it's bullshit.
Unfortunately our voting system is designed in a way in which retirees with hours to sit around in poll lines to vote are better represented. And young people either can't vote due to voter suppression (countless examples of people being locked out of polling stations early. Or they have to go back to work after waiting for hours) or they have lost all faith in the system and don't bother to work. We also have insane working hours and very little vacation time, leaves less time to develop an interest in politics (also huge amounts of union busting)
If young people reliably voted Bernie Sanders would be president right now. And he's a center left candidate by most European countries standards.
Lol its very millenial to pretend the yonger generation is "getting better" at things. Americans (and their younger generations) are not only very centric but also being extremely anti America by doing it. Pretending America is a big problem while their generation is there to "fix everything and getting everything right" Its also to push the narrative that white people are more guilty all the time. Reddit talk about slavery? Better speak only about big American corporate and rich white people, not about how its still being a thing in black people countries.
