How does each scene show Marx’s four forms of alienation and neoliberalism? by Jenny

workers were watched by the CEO and were asked to work quicker and quicker. Even though the CEO himself is not working at all, he could decide how and when the workers work.

BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING (even in the toilet)

Leisure time was deprived by the feeding machine. The worker was required to work even when eating lunch.

speeding the machine up again and again

The products belong to the factory owner, instead of the workers who create them.

2025-09-29 01:06:58 UTC

The product of labor are not owned by themselves

The workers worked non-stop on the assembly line. They kept repeating a single process.

2025-09-29 01:08:36 UTC

Workers compete to keep up with the pace rather than cooperate.

2025-09-29 01:08:38 UTC

The relentless speed of the assembly line, pushed by the boss, forces the worker to function like a machine.

The workers rarely talk to each other, the only human voice we could hear in the video is the Boss's.

Workers are set into a specific hinge of the task, and the whole chain of production would be affected if one worker lags behind.

The factory owner feeds the worker with small pieces of cakes & nuts of the same size, and apparently nuts are only for machines to "eat". Quickly after that, the machine's broke down.

2025-09-29 01:10:04 UTC

The repetitive, high-pressure work eventually causes the worker to lose his sanity.

2025-09-29 01:10:23 UTC

Workers can't rest for a single second. They didn't even have time to enjoy a complete smoking process.

2025-09-29 01:11:33 UTC

Chaplin’s character's body (self) becomes a part of the machine (a metaphor of dehumanization?)

2025-09-29 01:11:35 UTC

Products of labor belong to merchants who own matter instead of workers who created them.

2025-09-29 01:12:22 UTC

The surplus value of the labor can then be exploited by the capital owners

2025-09-29 01:12:35 UTC

eliminating lunch breaks removed social interactions

2025-09-29 01:12:53 UTC

Workers are forced to compete with one another, which creates barriers among them. Through dividing workers groups, merchants solidify this structure.

willywei0704 — 2025-09-29 01:13:09 UTC

workers are pitted against each other in a competitive environment driven by the demands of the capitalist system ( no relationships)

The workers wanted to confront the person who was disrupting them, but as long as pulling the lever kept the assembly line running, they had no choice but to return to their original positions and continue working.

lindaleng240128 — 2025-09-29 01:14:52 UTC

There's a scene where one worker holds another as a tool to place the products on the production line. It shows the objectification of humanity

2025-09-29 01:44:49 UTC

One worker's face was slaped by the machine again and again, and the manager didn't seem to care about him at all.

xggrbpfzwm — 2025-09-29 01:48:36 UTC

the assembly line worker's body continues to perform twisting motions uncontrollably even after he leaves the factory, instinctively trying to "tighten" anything resembling a nut.
