You know people are still compensated for labor under socialist economic theory right? In most visions of socialism, these jobs would offer more to the employee explicitly because they’re undesirable. They’ll still be hard but the workers’d be better off
Comrades! What will your job be after the revolution?

Under Marx’s conception of communism, the distribution of resources would be “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs”. No monetary compensation would be given because there would be no money.

I said socialism. A transitional state, and the thing a “revolution” would most likely actually lead too.
