Edit: Huh, I thought this was a pretty tame comment. I just mean that donkeys likely have a different idea of “success” than people do. I’m not quite sure why this is being taken so negatively. I just thought the meme was kind of silly and dumb.
No, it says that hard work “leads to success” not that “hard work is success”. Typically, when applied to people, success doesn’t mean working hard. It means attaining something the person wants. In the case of a donkey, their personal definition of success is likely different than for a person. That is what I meant by my comment.
I like working in food service, but you couldn’t pay me enough to own a restaurant or bakery. The donkey doesn’t choose to work there, nor is it compensated, so this isn’t applicable in this case, but my ideal situation would be working super hard thirty hours a week and earning enough to live comfortably off, while taking occasional vacations. That’s unfortunately not really possible, so I’m getting a masters degree instead of trying for management.
You see, your issue was that you didn’t Yes-Amen a meme against capitalism. On Lemmy that is a cardinal sin. Now read from The Capital for an hour to repent.
This depends on how you define success.

It was literally defined in the picture, by hard work.

Well, by owning the farm.

Quite. Not sure why you’re being downvoted so much. Hive mind’s gonna hive, I guess
