Fuck up your own life for the "greater good of society" is something I could imagine the likes of Bernie saying.
"You don't need to enjoy life, society needs you to give up your fun!" = "Nobody needs to be a millionaire, society's lowest need cash"
Hardly the individualist ideology that's supposed to be the bedrock of modern conservatism, is it.
Suffering and hardship for the betterment of yourself and your neighbor are the cornerstones of what makes a man, and made many societies great.
The reason so many undertook it was the understanding between man and society that there was more than likely to be compensation at the end for his misery. A wife, who provides a good home, made men willing to do horrific shit out of concepts like "honor" and "duty."
Now they've taken away the compensation and still expect you to do the work anyway, and cannot fathom why some men say "nah." Not even in the MGTOW sense, but in the "society isn't worth saving because the cancer is too deep."
