Poor Dolly don't get no respect! She tries to be woke offering tacit support to Biden's Lynch Mob and here she is running afoul of leftist dogma. Dolly, sweetie, you just can't win with these losers.
When you become your own boss, yeah life can be very difficult and working 5-9 sometimes goes with the territory, my dad started a couple of small businesses and that's the way it is. But persistence pays off, and if you work hard AND smart it'll pay off big time.

She proudly said black lives matter. She refused a Presidential medal from Trump. And it isn’t enough for social justice jihadis’ lynch mobs that tear every blasphemer and accused innocent down.

People really get upset over a Super Bowl commercial?

Anyone who wants to play the left’s game needs to play by their rules - just offering lip service won’t be enough. Parton is discovering that. Some hefty contributions to BLM should buy her some time.

She did not "refuse" a medal from Trump. She could not attend at the scheduled times - also said she doesn't believe she really deserves it and isn't sure she would want to accept such an award even if circumstances permit.

Well, leftists have a point.

Working, even 9-5, or working at all, is so, pre-pandemic.

Why work when the federal government can just mail or deposit your ‘wages’?

Everybody deserves a minimum wage, even if not deserved or worked for. The wonder is, why are illegals even bothering to come into the country? The U.S. can just send them checks into their home country. Everybody wins. ;)

What about the lawyers who do 60 billable hours per week in order to make partner?

That sounds like a diplomatically phrased refusal to me.

The gig economy is a wretched alternative to a stable paycheck and proper benefits, and efforts to paint it as a matter of "independence" or "being one's own boss" downplay how hard it is for so many gig workers to make ends meet.

I'm so glad leftists care about me and my efforts to make a living, and have decided that the independent contractor work that I used to have before California's AB 5 eliminated it just wasn't good enough.

Thanks, caring leftists. You've cared me right out of employment.

They may have half a point - corporate globalists have for decades suppressed American wages with offshoring and foreign labor (legal and illegal). It's an empirical question whether side hustles are more often done out of ambition or necessity.

Here’s my thought on this. I think these leftists all tacitly acknowledge that they’re a bunch of dimwitted slackers and they hate to see others put in extra effort and achieve. So they’d rather throw stones instead because it’s easier than to actually work hard.
