      Yes, well menial labor didn’t stop existing. The ratio just changed by a lot. I also figure most on Lemmy aren’t working in sweat shops lol, I definitely don’t mean Africans working in a pit when I say ‘Us’.

      In any case, it’s far from peak delusion, it’s literally history. Right before WW1, 30% of Americans were full time farmers. Now that number sits at 1.3%.
