    Honestly, you come off just like him. These words sound like because you have your own business you can’t be told what to do. But everyone should have that right, whether they own a business or not

      You’re right, because I have my own business, I can’t be told what to do. What’s wrong with that?

      The difference is that I’m not telling literally everybody else that I’M watching you, and you better behave yourself - by MY standards - or else.

      I want to live my life by my own personal standards, without interference from some Sociopathic Oligarch, and I want the same for you. I don’t understand how you took my declaration of independence as being aligned with this arrogant monster.

      Frankly, I think you’re jealous. Start your own business. Even a side hustle eases your primary job’s grip on your throat, and it might turn into a successful business.

      Free Yourself.

      Yes, collectively we should be able to demand and enforce changes. But individually, we should never have enough power to subjugate other people.
