If you work for a company, then you spend the majority of your time operating under an authoritarian government.

An 'authoritarian' company, that has to follow labor, trade, civil laws made by the actual government. That I can 'emigrate' from whenever I want without having to learn a new language...

Where were you going with this?

It more likely seems you don't understand the difference between an employer and the government.

It more likely seems you don't understand how to think abstractly.

You can change employers but you can't (practically for most people) change your government. That's the big difference and why the comparison isn't very useful.

Yes, practically speaking, having an escape hatch makes a big difference when you work for a bad employer. But I’m not talking about quality of life.

I’m talking about the model of decision making and how distributed it is. That is fundamentally more important.

Ironically, HN is throttling my account for talking about this.

HN is throttling your account because it’s 15 minutes old.

Nope, other account
