Like I’m being micromanaged right now and I risk my stability if I were to tell my boss to inch off, but my boss can basically publicly berate me if they want to without consequence to their own stability. It’s soul-rotting.

One of the most valuable parts of getting away from economic precarity is having the option of saying no to your boss and/or threatening to quit if they don't fix things. When you have the option to quit, this anxiety melts away.
99.9% of people don't get to experience this, but everyone deserves it. And things like, foe example, employer-dictated healthcare is a tool to prevent that individual worker power flex.
Yep. At my old job two times I just said "fuck it I quit" and started walking away when my boss was on his bullshit and both times he near instantly changed his tune and let me get my way. It's great and everyone should be able to do it and not just the well off or apathetic.
if you are a headache to replace you can do that much more than otherwise
