the existence of these callcenters (often in india, but hardly only there - much of africa is beset by the same problem) is an outright fucking feature of the years-long capitalist market optimisation hell-loop. and as annoying as their "output" (for lack of a better word) may be in one's daily life, at the end of the day it's still a bunch of people at the bottom rung getting fucked
(e: I mention "callcenters" but "AI support centers"/"data review"/"remote shoppers"/.... - it's all the same fucking exploitation-offshoring dynamic)

chucklefucks coming along shouting "you don't know what you're talking about!" while having little fucking idea what the person they're engaging with actually does
fuck off
