How do Marxists grapple with the fact that work can be enjoyable? That people can enjoy working i.e. having a job where you talk to people all day or just sit around talking to your co-workers etc etc

If you have environments which habitually let you enjoy yourself is this not the definition of emancipation? Wouldn't these positions afford you a considerable opportunity to exercise that 'extra-regarding prudence' Bentham talks about?

What if, after reading all of this Marxist bullshit you keep suggesting, I still think that Marx is inherently a mooch?

What happens then?

Have you heard of the idea of 'exploitation of labor'?

What if I think and perceive my labor as adding value to the end product no matter what Marx says, and that, as such, my exit from the transportation or conveying of the product, or manufacture of the product would actually hurt their profits significantly, as it would in many small co-operatives?

What if there are many people whose labor really defies the idea of 'exploitation', and that these workers are not miserable?

Darwin is tricky, you have to absolutely believe in evolution(to own the dumb Creationist christians) but you must never, ever apply its principles to humans.
