Can you explain why marxist theory is not suited to exploring contemporary society? give two points and explain each.

For Marx, work should be humanizing, but in capitalism it is the opposite. As a commodity it is alienating, exploitative, humiliating and monotonous.

The work that should be humanizing under capitalism is its opposite, because in the form of commodity it is: alienating - because the worker is unaware of the production process itself and the value it adds to the product, besides not identifying with the products of its job; explorer - due to the production objectives of the surplus value linked to the capital accumulation process; humiliating - because it negatively affects self-esteem; monotonous - by its organization and the content of the task.

Although I agree with Marx's theory, the fact that we live in a capitalist society, which imposes labor on us as a survival form, is difficult to put into practice precisely because it seems to be an utopia.

in this scenario it would be the consumer demand as most influential in making the decision. the band members need to figure out where and from whom they will make the most money, in other words who out of the two consumer groups - football fans or car drivers - will spend their money, who is more likely to contribute to their cause and buy what they are offering.
