Newspapers, owned by rich people, have been regurgitating the same conservative talking points.

I think you could broaden that out and call them capitalist talking points.

Any idea on any of these sources? It’d be great to be able to point to actual articles dating back more than a century when having a conversation/debate/argument about the “nobody wants to work” narrative

Nobody wants to work, they just have to in order to survive.

It’s telling how the old quote includes “for wages”
Our society has been dragged so far right that we harldy discuss abolition of the wage system these days.
It’s not an issue about working. Its an issue about working for wages (as opposed to workers owning the means of production and distributing the profits democratically and equally)

tl;dr: nobody ever wanted to work

Nobody on this Com wants to work anymore, they just keep posting the same stuff. This is image is recycled fodder that keeps showing up in my feed. Work on your posts at least people!
