"Hello, I would like to benefit from society without contributing to it"

there are ways to contribute that aren't 40+ hours a week.

If your position is simply that people need to work less, you're doing a very bad job of relaying that, and thus shooting yourself in both feet.

I hate to admit this, but I agree. My qualm isn't with the message that we ought to work less. That's smart. Why shouldn't we live in a society where we can have a fulfilling lifestyle without endless soul crushing work?
My qualm is with the wording. The implication is that one should consent to work, but really work is a fundamental truth. Take away the facade of society and all we have is our struggle to survive the elements and find food, i.e. work.

Nah, like a land lord. The CEO of my company is a very productive person.

Work vs labor

It is very unfortunate that posts like the OP portray the anti work movement in that way, but anti work does not mean that. I think this other commenter summarized it better: https://lemm.ee/comment/3155176
