@elana @decorummanager Yes, "treats" would seem to be close parallel to the perks of perk-seeking: silhouette of #perquisitive #classposture as cast upon #conveyancée class posture.

#FrosteanBargain situates perk-seeking in relation to rent-seeking—as distinct from profit-seeking—as long-term vestment of #EgoValue (compare use value, exchange value) in autobiography accounting Robert Frost satirized.

Less about the treats than upholding #compliancism promise of treats.

@blkchimera Hence the need for a #lumpentheory that begins its critique not with the glorification of work and the worker vis-à-vis capitalist exploitation, but instead with the #ableism, the eugenics, the #whiteness, that binds and holds fast those of #conveyancée, #disaccommodation and #conquistadas #classposture vis-à-vis colonial extraction.

Any move to elide or erase dispossession—as Marx did with his "passive decaying matter"—is #eugenicist at its core. Such cannot be our starting point.
