Attending a conference, and just heard this one dropped by an avowed Marxist. It's times like these where I hate being in academia.

Did they identify their pronouns before they spoke?

Yes!!! Now I have something to use when my boss asks why I’m not working.

What was their definition? Inquiring minds want to know.

Toxic productivity is essentially an unhealthy desire to be productive at all times, at all costs. It's the need to go the “extra mile” at work or at home, even when it's not expected of you. Toxic productivity doesn't even let up once the task is complete.

Regression to the lowest common denominator.

So just another way for the left to “level the playing field”

this is where it gets real scary in the implementation part of things. you can demand equity in terms of government/society, but that still won't completely nullify the differences in individuals. there is a reason why Pol Pot killed anyone he considered to be intelligent or academic (that would be "toxic intelligence" i suppose)

Had a boss that would qualify. Had a sleeping couch in his office and would many nights work through to morning getting naps in.

Of course he expected us to do the same. He hated seeing me leave “early “ at 6:30 or 7 pm.

Got a big ol ulcer working for that arse.

Sounds about right. Commies don’t like hustle and hard work.

This is kind of a thing though isn't it? I know people who are workaholics to the point where it impacts their marriages and relationships with their family. Frick these pronoun retard commies but people working themselves to death is a problem and especially in places like Japan.

Thomas Edison, Ben Franklin, Nikolai Tesla, Alexander Graham Bell, Elon Musk.....the list goes on. The people that accomplished great things are now denigrated as having "toxic productivity".
Let's celebrate our new heroes, people killed by cops for breaking laws and doing stupid things. Yes, those are our modern heroes.

It doesn’t even make sense with a Marxist bend

Communes still need productive people willing to go the extra mile

Most of the OT would survive under Pol Pot.

If you didn’t shout the communist cocksucker down off the platform and/or beat his arse, you are part of the problem.
