    It doesn’t mean anything. It’s something white upper middle class kids say when they want to pretend that working for money is at all the same as chattel slavery (he also spelled it wrong), which is how slavery worked in the US.

    It’s a disgusting turn of phrase that demeans the horrors of actual slavery in the US.
