Physical strength is poor when doing manual work, and IQ is not good when doing mental work. If I start a business, I have no such idea. Will I be eliminated by society like this?

No, doing things in a down-to-earth manner will not be eliminated by society. If you deny yourself before doing anything, you can't do anything. Calm down and make a good plan. Don't talk about success, at least you will have a clearer understanding of the future.

If you think that a person can't work hard to get rich because he can only work hard physically, but not mentally. Then you are fascinated by capital, completely immersed in capitalist thinking, and thinking about problems with exploitative thinking.

What are more white-collar workers sitting in high-rise office boards now than workers' parents sitting on the assembly line of electronics factory in garment factory twenty or thirty years ago? Is it mental work? No, it's educational experience, and it's educational resources gained in the process of growing up.

Now there are many people who should be fair to the upper class and work hard for the lower class.

Only when they face the rich groups in the megacities of North, Guangzhou and Shenzhen can they realize that some people get more because he and his parents occupy more social resources.

In the face of groups that are no different from or worse than themselves, they unconsciously put on the attitude of their superiors and use the same logic to persuade and ridicule each other. "You are poor because you don't work hard and don't like to use your head."

Manual labor has great social value, no less than mental labor.

To give an exaggerated concrete example, if there were no physical labor of sanitation workers, mental workers would live in garbage dumps.

The low remuneration of manual workers is caused by the pricing difference between capital and labor.

In essence, because there is too much supply of manual workers and there is no shortage of capital to find people, capital is stigmatized in order to better exploit manual labor. When people generally accept this logic, they will unconsciously take this unfair distribution for granted and voluntarily accept exploitation.

Nowadays, many office white-collar workers think they are mental workers, so they are noble and have an inexplicable sense of superiority to manual workers. As we all know, when the same level of labor supply exceeds the market demand, they will get the same treatment. Once they don't follow the requirements of capital, they will be stigmatized. For example, if they don't work overtime, they will say that you are waiting for death.
