>actually, in our current world it is normal for most people to become a wage slave and sell their labor for money.
Actually, in our current world, slavery is still practiced.

>it’s the same with proprietary software: don’t attack the victim and make things even harder for them, attack the perpetrator.
Attacking the perpetrator is not just about punishing those who profit, but also about disrupting the system that sustains it. If no one uses proprietary software, the business of the proprietary master collapses. Freeing the victims also means taking away something they have become accustomed to, even if at first it seems like an aggression to them. But in the long run, it is part of freeing them from control. It is not about attacking them, but about not perpetuating their subordination out of fear of making them uncomfortable.
