This is why we're seeing so the workforce collapsing and they're saying, I'm not going back to work, especially post-COVID.

This is why we're seeing the younger generation saying there is no hope.

Why even try?

We're seeing a collapse of willing workforce absolutely because of this problem.

Yes, especially if you've been raised at home as a child, that's how you were treated.

You believe everyone in the world thinks that way.

So non-sentimental thinking.

I will serve my employees by maximizing profits.

And if we can't eat from the profits, we will eat our employees instead.

And at least we will survive with the largest number of employees who still have jobs.

And if they have jobs, that's good enough.

Even if they don't get to see their kids, at least have food to eat.

That's that mentality that's coming down from the top of justifying treating your people as cogs in a machine.

When you de-empathize them and dehumanize them, you at least rationalize it by saying, I'm not a sociopath.

I'm going to be very clear.

Avoidantly attached people are not sociopaths.

It's not that they don't care about humans.

It's that their brain is in such a hardcore survival state that their brain says we must triage everything down to the bone.

And if we have to sacrifice one for the collective, then we do that.

Even if I have to sacrifice my health and well-being, I will sacrifice me.
