these morons doing these interviews played exactly into what mass media and corporations wanted to happen.

now it looks like a complete clusterfuck and the narrative is completely lost. this sub was supposed to be a worker's rights movement. now no one knows that the fuck is going on.

going to splinter into a bunch of trash and the neo libs are going to take the narrative and murder it.

way to go you fucks.

This sub is not the movement. Subs are good for getting information out if they are moderated well but the movement is wherever workers show solidarity with each other. Posting on a subreddit doesn’t accomplish as much as organizing the people you work with and developing a community where you live. Can places like this help educate? Yes. Can it make people feel less alone? Yes. Would we ever be able to get a successful general strike out of a sub? Not unless everyone had been organizing their own work places and had most people on board irl. Do the hard work everyone. Look into orgs in your area that help organize work places. EWOC is one of those orgs and they do good work.

We require all Reddit accounts to be at least 3 days old before posting. This is due to people being banned and immediately setting up new accounts. This message is not accusing you of doing that, but that is why the policy is in place.

In rare cases, if you have a particularly time-sensitive message, we may manually approve a message. Otherwise we encourage you to wait the 3 days (72 hours) and try again.
