I don't really get what he's trying to say...
I assume he is meaning that work is stealing your free time, and that there is no such thing as work vs free time, there is just free time, right?
Just a weird way to say that. maybe im just dumb.

He's also saying that the idea of what "work" actually is has been stolen from us. What they call work is actually toil. Real work should enrich, fulfill, sustain, enhance, and empower us. And it should preferably be self-directed. If you've ever poured your time and energy into a personal passion project, you've known true work.

I think you mightve just said it better, lol

It reads like a trust fund kid's "tips for success". Like, "Everyday is a work day if you wanna make real money" kinda bullshit

This quote isn't even efficient for new gen. Here:
Bourgie lied when folk toil
for real work one improves,
in self time, in self-terms.
let bourgie toil, for they lied♪

Whoever wrote that never worked as a garbage collector, a coroner or a fruit picker.

The fuck does he even mean?
And what does it have to do with anarchy? If anything, it sounds like this is some capitalist's "grinding is good" bullshit.
