lmao the comments on that article

seems like it could be fun, but first let’s see if they want $15/mo for it

I also disagreed, but I can’t coherently argue why, which is obviously a sign to reflect on my opinions.

One thing that stood out to me was the broad, encompassing usage of “left”. The author lumps together the theatrical leftism like this photo with political leftism like codified worker protections.

I did think he made an excellent point that “down with oligarchs!” isn’t going to resonate with a lot of working class people.

edit: I also think the author failed to acknowledge that conservative think tanks and media savvy have certainly influenced opinions and even the LANGUAGE used to discuss topics among all classes, so to imply that the working class hasn’t changed at all isn’t fair.

damn, didn’t ANYBODY in the comments section bother to read the article?

my counterpoint is that the union leaders can then look at the company like this:

Brilliant to have a strike with a set duration so that A) management knows your serious B) management can accurately determibe the potential cost of the strike C) if the strike does occur, you’ll have higher participation rates and D) if the strike does occur, it won’t drain the union’s coffers as it has in the past with the American UAW.

Absolutely brilliant planning. IBEW ought to be taking notes!

no, read the article: they went a smidge solarpunk, are mostly petrolpunk, and often there-is-no-electricity-todaypunk

just slapping the link down for others who want it :)
