from what I understand it came out of Calvinism- people believed that it was pre-determined whether or not you'll go to heaven so if you are successful in life that is evidence that your one of gods chosen ones who will go to heaven so people toiled away for money for all their worth to prove they're going to heaven

this is my very limited understanding its probably all bs lol

They work less hours and get paid more than catholic workers because they were fortunate to be born in countries with good economies.
They convince themselves their wealth comes from hardwork in order to believe their wealth was earned when in reality they were simply lucky they were born into a wealthy economy.
That is the protestant work ethic, copious amount of arrogance and delusion.

bullshit fucking retard. We work MUCH harder. Youth unemployment is rampant in south Europe and you people insist on having "siesta", which is a concept that is foreign and almost incomprehensible to white people. Name one portuguese inventor.

Our economies did not become wealthy because we are lucky, but because we worked hard for it. How else did it become so wealthy?

because you cant know until you die but if god bestows upon you a life were you make a lot of money thats probably a good sign that your a lucky one

also they believe that since god gave you certain skills you are carrying out his will by applying those skills

No, it's that whether you were one of the preordained or not was a source of great anxiety for Calvinist societies so they sated this anxiety with material wealth

Basically it's about being honest and having actually read the gospels. I don't believe in God but I still carry the old New England protestant ethic that Marxbots hate.
If I'm on the clock, I work, because I agreed to. Unless something is going wrong, I'm not being paid the agreed amount, or I'm being forced to do something I didn't agree to and really dislike, why would I bitch?
I don't see work as daycare or my employer as my surrogate parent.
I see my superiors as superior only in the explicitly delineated context of our work agreement. I don't get angry I'm not in their position, or feel oppressed by their existence, or think much about them at all unless they're annoying me.
I am equally capable, as a standard issue white man without major mental illnesses, of giving or taking instructions or directives.
When I go home, I have stopped thinking about work by the time I start driving.
When I'm at work, I will even be thinking about other things so long as it doesn't interfere with my performance.
I see myself as an equal to every other citizen and don't care if richer people get into exclusive clubs or have things I can't afford to.
I don't see their money as something I'm rightfully owed or should be mad they have, I see it as theirs.
I especially dislike modern Marxists for always interfering in the investigation of corruption by screeching that capitalism is rape, profit is exploitation, and generally that any time two people agree, it's evil and force needs to be involved to make sure they get "their fair share" of other peoples' money and resources. They are the most "capitalist" people I've ever seen and care far more about money and are far more wasteful of it than most of the few rich people I've ever known.
I think it's absurd to try to force everyone into a socialist system of enforced redistribution to "preserve their dignity". There is more dignity to begging in the street honestly and openly than in having the feds steal for you.

No, it's forbearance.
Make money.
Agree to give money to someone else rather than use it for yourself, if they you back later with extra.
This is useful to them and profitable to you, and you both agreed.
But noblemen lack restraint and don't honor their words so centuries later communists in denial are still crying that people are allowed to make legal agreements which they are then expected to uphold under the law.
