Yeah, it seems as though this person learned the buzzwords, but not the concepts. You are going to be using your labour regardless, so why would it not be preferable to use it directly for yourself? Of all the things capitalism promised, free stuff was never included.
Capitalism promised us better technology, cheaper products and more efficient use of our time and energy, and yet we went from fully metal constructed refrigerators that used to last multiple decades of borderline abuse to cheap pieces of plastic that break and shut fown if you use the wrong drm controlled water filter and we can't even fix it ourselves any more because the corporations owned by capitalists don't sell replacement parts to the public, don't have schematics freely available, and purposefully design their stuff to break even worse if you do try to repair it.
