    I don’t think it would end well for workers, but I could be wrong. The powers against Unions have such a long stretch of influence

      it comes to cracking heads because the owners always hire muscle to break strikes… they believe they can hide behind protection, they always do…

      and now they’re all drooling over what AI can do to help them control workers even better

        Either way productivity will trend downward.

        Will AI perfect the propaganda machine?

          It was done in the past with Pinkertons in the past, why would you expect it to be any different today? Instead of hiring muscle, they just use the already there, and already established police to break up strikes and protests.

            Yeah. There was also slavery in the past.

            Why should I expect it to be any different now? It’s not like anything changes, ever. Lol.

              It does change, and we should fight for more changes. This is just sadly one thing that hasn’t yet.

      Why wouldn’t it end well for the workers?

      How does work get done without them? Lol.

        Unionizers have been abused and literally bombed in the US, long list of crimes committed against unions

              I heard MLK was murdered after he started mingling with unions

      That’s more via media manipulation and propagandizing than a statement about the power of an armed Proletariat.
