    I don’t hate the Europeans for having fair working conditions. I hate the rich assholes that make my home country such a shitty place to live and work in.

    It’s time to emulate the french and set the place on fire if they don’t start treating us fair.

          By actually talking to your coworkers about unionization, which is scarier for many of us than fantasies of an anonymous crowd.

            It mostly depends whether unions are successful or not under the current administration. Unionizing has gone bad before. You can’t always blame the workers for not believing it would help, theres a lot of pressure from the other side.

        We need Syndicates and Worker/Consumer cooperatives as an end goal. Unions aren’t the finish line and are only a bandaid over capital ownership.

          Markets aren’t the finish line either, to be fair. Those retain the mechanisms that bring about inequality.

          The protests and strikes they keep quashing are the alternative to fires, destruction, and violence. It’s a social agreement the factory and warehouse owners want us to have forgotten.

        Only for them to be destroyed in another 20 years by the rich

        Nah. Break out the guillotines, it worked well for the French.
