quote via david graeber from david is funny clips:

2:06 – kropotkin: only reason don’t have techs (to do dirty jobs) is that rich people don’t really need them

longer version in fragments of an anarchist anthropology:

847

this of course brings up the ‘who will do the dirty jobs’ question.. one which always get thrown at anarchists or other utopians.. peter kropotkin long ago pointed out the fallacy of the argument.. there’s no particular reason dirty jobs have to exist.. if one divided up the unpleasant tasks equally, that would mean all the worlds’ top scientists and engineers would have to do them too; one could expect the creation of self-cleaning kitchens and coal-mining robots almost immediately..
