A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Someone tells you what to do, and you have to obey or else you lose your housing, healthcare, and other basic necessities.

This is so wrong. You are not entitled to basic necessities. You have to provide them for yourself, that is the natural order. This is what most of humanity did for milenia via subsistence farming and it sucked.

Sooner or later people decided that working in a factory sucked a little less than working in the field. Then more recently, people decided working in an office sucked a little less than working in the factory.

Employment is not slavery. You can quit anytime.

I think they just want to roleplay some ideology that doesn't actually exist or possibly function. This is another reminder that comment scores have nothing to do with how sane or correct the comment is lol.
