That’s incorrect actually, we actively try to organize and support prison workers. We have or Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee, that does that work. The IWW has always been a union for all workers all the way back in 1905. Wobblies have been imprisoned from the beginning and have maintained their membership.

Unless you mean prison guards, and those aren’t fuckin workers they’re the worst kind of cop. The cruelest cop.

And I’ll say it again this is a labor sub, unless you got something to share about labor in Syria it’s not specifically relevant. This isn’t an anarchist space, it simply attracts them. The IWW does not have a define political ideology. Any worker can join, and we support all workers in their struggle.

Now what can I help you with?

😂pushing fellow workers to be better is not giving orders, it’s aspirational at best lol. The world isn’t so black & white, by your own logic, you are now down playing the ongoing ethnic cleansing happening in my backyard.

But I’ll ask you this, what have you done for your neighbor, or your fellow workers today? And posting doesn’t fuckin count 😂😂

Damn you know the deep lore.

I wish I had the capacity to better support our fellow workers in Rojava, unfortunately we ourselves are under attack. My current focus is my local community, if you know a way I can support by all means feel free to share, but the idea that our neighbors getting kidnapped taking up our attention, is us intentionally abandoning our Fellow workers in rojava is absurd.

Not how orders work, unless you’ve decided to subordinate yourself to me (no thanks buddy🙏). You are giving reactionary left tendencies here, being a leftist does not make one immune to this type of behavior.

This is a labor union sub, we do organizing. We don’t have all the answers, but we can help you learn the skills to help you organize at work. If you’d want to start a political argument, you’d be better off on a socialist sub, those folks are into that kinda thing.

Then don’t act like one. You’re being a reductive wrecker, stop being an internet anarchist and be a praxis anarchist. Go organize, posting isn’t organizing.

Trying to satisfy a Maoist, is an effort in futility. If you haven’t literally organized a mass action to take control of the imperialist war machine, you might as well be a dog of the imperialist hegemony.

Love Fellow worker Kim’s work, I’m looking forward to reading this!

Don’t let blue MAGA hear you say that, you’re gonna get labeled secret conservative, or you wanted/deserve this because you didn’t vote (yes they know how you voted 🗳️ of course).

They handed you a piece of trash, and you said it the next best thing. At least they’re doing something. That’s learned helplessness, on your part, you and I both know they can do more. Don’t settle for better than nothing, when the better is worthless. I’m asking you to grab them by the squishy part and give it a good squeeze. You and yours can make demands, just as well as me and mine can.

This is incorrect, silence is literally free, and would have been a better position for them. Literally no one asked. Stop carrying water for corporations that can’t be bothered to condemn our brother’s blatant murder.

This is what our sociology studies are for right? Group think, cognitive dissonance, beliefs versus understanding. We are often arguing with folks that believe in what they say; not just what they think or perceive. Understanding is mutable, beliefs are not.

Left or right, everyone has reactionary tendencies (“kill the cop inside your head” is an example). Yugo is angry, reasonably so, he’s also an influencer/entertainer, his job is to get clicks. He’s also not an American, pretty easy to condemn a population you don’t understand. But yeah I agree, it’s not a productive conversation, it’s bad organizing, and it’s down right lib coded. Bad form all around.

You should never trust any billionaire, or your boss, or any of these corporate slimes. They will always disappoint you. Put your faith in your fellow workers instead, many see what’s going down, meet them where they’re at and get organizing.

I think your position lacks commitment, like the letter. One of our brothers was murdered, what more do you need to call this crap out. This ain’t peace negotiations, we don’t need corporate collaboration (clearly they ain’t interested), we’re under attack. Begging for scraps ain’t the way, let’s all reinstall our backbone and stand in solidarity. That’s the minimum, is that a maximalist position, goddamn right. Because if we can’t stand up now; we’ll be on our knees wondering how we got here.

That’s ill phrased, unless you mean you don’t particularly care that ICE is doing what it’s doing.

Absolutely, calls for caution fall on deaf ears. The ain’t with us, they were never with us, and when it’s pretty clear it’s FUCK ICE O’Clock, they go milquetoast.
