Solidarity!

The IWW also has resources to help people start unions, in any industry.

We unionized with Teamsters Local 117 😇

Aren't the majority of people striking Millennials?

Social media. It has been used for quick grass roots organizing in many countries.

I have my own conspiracy theories on why X/Twitter and the like have been crashed the way they did.

The Russian general strike of 1905 is mainly a result of defeat in a foreign war combined with the bloody Sunday. So people spontaneously started to strike, with little to none organization.

In fact, at the start of the general strike, most socialist parties were taken by surprise, and only after they realized that the revolution was happening, did they try to enter the scene and steer the movement.

We gotcha covered in the US, lol. I know people that have 30,000 rounds for some of their guns, and they're on both sides of the aisle.

That's good to hear. Still left a really bitter taste that they interfered. Not to mention the whole East Palestine stuff.

Rail workers are still on-call 24/7, the raises they got are below inflation, and I'm pretty sure Biden's legislation only grants one additional day of leave with various rail companies granting a handful of additional days on top of that, with unused days not carrying over from year to year. Rail workers had leverage to demand more than this — rail networks are critical infrastructure — but the government struck down that leverage and then awarded them a concession prize that was less than they wanted. I see it as a blow to the power of unions, not a victory. It sends the message that the government can destroy your strike and then arbitrarily choose to give you whatever concessions they feel are appropriate. Biden could have chosen to give them nothing, they didn't win this. And at the end of the day, their bosses can still call them in at 4 in the morning and they still lose their job if they don't show.

Just for clarity’s sake, it’s a parody account.
