Did you read any of the actual words on that image? It was a direct response to the organized narrative from the right calling anyone without a job a parasite.
It was pointing out the incorrect nature of that word as it is used by that talking point. And it suggested that the word would more correctly apply to a different group of people. Following the definition, those who are job creators would NOT be parasites, would they? But those that live off the host, without contributing, (as in taking but NOT creating jobs) would more likely fit the definition. I thought it was a well-crafted response.
