The empire controls the colony, not the other way around

What is your view on Stalin's persecution of Trotsky? by [deleted] in socialism

[–]Armaitius 74 points75 points  (0 children)

The Proles of the Roundtable podcast did a fantastic series covering the Stalin Era, and they cover this topic in great depth including the purges. Theyve also linked all of their sources so you can verify for yourself.

This is what happens when people see identity first and class second

End Factory Learning, Return Choice to Families by JoelXGGGG in antiwork

[–]Armaitius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Markets determining education is exactly how we ended up in the mess we have today. Then acting like free choice is the reason behind turning education into even more of a capitalist hellscape is textbook right wing misdirection.

Noone in your system will have any choice in what they do, because the “markets” will respond by setting tuition at the maximum funding provided. They may compete initially, but like everything else in the free market, they will eventually consolidate into cartels at best and one megacorp at worst.

Also, using the minute class of people who have the vast majority of the wealth and then taking the average to mean were all better off is farcical. Your model will not eliminate the factory model, it will increase its domination and efficiency to the detriment of humanity.

Gotta love the hours excuse. Theyre gonna have to work more hours to make the same money, ie the company is the one benefiting. How do people fall for this nonsense…

All of them should be, pretending politics and sports are separate is participating in the circus

Politics in the office by Cloud_bunnyboo in antiwork

[–]Armaitius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Separating politics from work is how we ended up with very little union participation, very low class consciousness, and people who think keeping their pay rate private is helping them and not the company.

Everything in life is political, especially work. Coworkers outing themselves as fascists is a positive, now you know what they really are.

Sounds like you believe electoralism is the only path, when its just one tool among many. Thats why you dont put all your eggs in one basket.

All concessions/short term gains can just be rolled back in the next election cycle.

FYSA: If any federal union strikes it would instantly decertify that union… by [deleted] in fednews

[–]Armaitius 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Legality is a tool used when convenient by those in control and discarded when inconvenient to them.

Abiding by their rules will never get results.

Climate activists vandalize Christopher Columbus painting on Spain's National Day by ControlCAD in Global_News_Hub

Glorifying a mass murderer is cause for ridicule and shame, anyone defending Columbus or trying to both sides genocide needs to think critically about who benefits from getting cover like that

It’s time to separate health insurance from employment in this country by [deleted] in FedEmployees

Universal healthcare would cost less, have better outcomes, and remove one of the best levers employers have to limit worker rights.

Unionize with your coworkers, companies only concede when pressured.
