Is it the wrong response? If they hate a job there's actual value in assessing whether they need it, especially if they could live life in a different environment they would enjoy with things made by their own hands.

Well yea, why open your mouth at all that point? This implies people who don't leave society approve of it, which is blatantly false.

Or maybe you just literally do not empathize with most humans, which feels a little concerning.

There is value, yes. However, things are rarely so black and white as the commenter above you sees it wherein one could simply disconnect entirely. The reality of it is within our current zeitgeist the digital world is unavoidable - be it in the workplace, the condensation of our activities (incl. unavoidable ones- banking, etc) into apps on our phones.

Of course this is barring the idea of withdrawing all ones savings and moving onto a farm and living off the land :D.
