Need clarity on this topic because it doesn't seem that bad from what I see.

You have a stable income, you have one hour lunch breaks, you have ur own cubicle, you can customize ur desk area

What is it that's so bad or am I brainwashed?

It's mainly the monotony, and most of the time you're pretending to work until you can go home.

If you are chad, it will be pleasant cause you will get good interactions with people, if you aint, enjoy hell. This goes with anything.

It depends what 9-5 you have, if its like working at a bar, you'll always meet new people and have chaotic nights, i can tell you this for experience, if you're into girls and couldn't care less about being respectful, you'll find lots of girls that come to you begging you for a shot while being already half naked with a mini skirt and a bikini most likely, some of them even come with their bf, still dunno how they manage to not leave the girl for the streets. But if you mean a 9-5 at an average office in town, they yeah pay will be just fine, long repetitive days and ofc most likely boring and dictated by your boss who will treat you to fire you or lower your pay if you're not willing to work harder, also this concept of " stable income" its not a real thing, the company or the employer could fail and go bankrupt overnight and have to leave many people at home, or the employer could just fire you because he found someone that is willing to do more and get paid less, take off your head this concept of "stable income" because unless you're the one working for yourself, there will be no thing like that.

What job in your opinion is the "freest" currently? (realistic)

no one, maybe the jobs you force yourself to like or the ones that you actually somehow like, it depends on the person, still these jobs where you have to work for someone at certain times of the day and earn little to the value you provide, i suggest freelancing instead, way better even if in the starting is way stressful than a normal job, but by time and connections you'll make it will become easier and more satisfying than a normal job.

No it mogs blue collar work to death. You usually make more and you’re not destroying and wearing down your body, and pensions basically don’t exist anymore. It might be more boring but it’s worth it in the end.

Im having same question.

But i think the downsides about this is, office job u usually finish your job in like 1 hour, and the rest you pretend you work 🥀, its not that work is hard but the monotony and its boredoom, correct me if im wrong i dont know that much about that

Depends on where you work if you enjoy working there if you like the people

It's not bad if you can tolerate "boring" tasks on the computer. Also, yes, Disney and other big corporations try to convince people to not do office work so they'll have more blue-collar slaves which is so much worse than office jobs on every level.

9-5 jobs is why people say time goes faster in adulthood

repetitiveness is what shortens life the most
