"It also urged male partygoers against dressing as a woman, which is a longstanding Carnival tradition."

Make your mind up!

Selling your labor in a capitalist marketplace so you don’t end up on the street is horrible and unnatural

It's definitely unnatural. "Natural" in this context would be using your labor to directly hunt and/or gather food, while avoiding predators, so you don't starve to death. There's no street to end up on because no one has a permanent home anyway.

All in all, the "unnatural" layer of abstraction on top of that is pretty damn nice.
