Jane McAlevey No Shortcuts: Organising for Power in the New Gilded Age is a great book to learn about unions and union strategy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago (2 children)

A strike takes a lot of preparation, most of which is unionising and convincing your coworkers to join the strike when it’s time. A strike at a workplace is only successful if 75% of workers join in on it. Some US unions are ready for it, but a lot aren’t. If you want to contribute, join a union or start unionising. Resistance is built from the bottom up and strong unions are the most effective method.

Read Jane McAlevey No Shortcuts: Organising for Power in the New Gilded Age to learn about how to make a successful union and how powerful a successful union can be.

Cops of lemmy, what’s it like to arrest/beat up/kill poor people whilst defending the rich?

Yes it’s strange. Irl I know mostly transmasc people but every online space I’ve visited is ‘dominated’ by transfem people. I’m happy they’re here but I do wish there were more transmasc people as well. I have similar aversions to tech but I like politics which is why I like lemmy.

I don’t think it such a big thing to ask that a presidential candidate supports none of these genocides?

Which generations built the landscape in which the only 2 viable options where genocidal maniacs?

Paid services profit if they reach a broader audience so they pay people to post on forums and other social media about their services.

Anyone with any sort of means of influence has a way to profit off of the situation. Resistance needs to happen from the bottom up.

How do you argue against an obvious lie? It’s not really worth it.

No one on hexbear is wasting money on the domain. The consensus is that the money is much better spent on mutual aid.
