What the fuck is radical rest? Is this from the same corpo double speak school as quiet quitting? Imagine just doing your job and chilling on your free time. Absolutely radical.

The whole thing is boomer and genx double speak for "genz knows we fucked them over and they're not doing what we need them to do for our cushy retirements to work out."

As a member of Gen X I'm over here watching Gen Z say "Oh that's the game? Then we're not playing" and cheering them on

Same here. The system is rigged against them and I am happy to watch them stand up against it.

No free labor for corporations. Fight for a living wage. And you should have a healthy work/life balance.
