The United Auto Workers union is on strike against General Motors, Ford and Stellantis, the first time in its history that it has struck all three of America’s unionized automakers at the same time.

Also, why was Stellantis allowed to be a thing? Can we stop with the fucking monopolistic corporate consolidation for one fucking second (and yes, I know the answer would be “no, because that would be less profitable“)?
Someone I know works in a southern, non-union auto plant. He gets most of the benefits of being in a union industry but refuses to acknowledge it. Can't wait for the bitching about this to commence.
I stand in solidarity and am curious about the efficacy of this “Stand-Up” approach to striking. It sounds brilliant and could change the way unions around the world operate.
