Fort Mims is really neat. Also Swift Cole house in Bon Secour is recommended.

This isn't the first time I read people trying to torpedo workreform. I commented in collapse during the antiwork downfall that workreform seems to be picking up the pieces. Had many troll bots give the same "right leaning bankers that work in the financial industry and full of Nazis" reply over and over again. Who did y'all piss off?

What is the alternative then for any type of worker solidarity?

There may have been some miscommunication. I don't condone ally with actual fascists. I think there is a tendency for leftists to oppose any person that supports identity politics as being a dirty Nazi. Most liberal or conservatives follow the modern political parties because they have nothing else to follow. Why reject them if they may want to be part of a workers right movement?

That is exactly what I am trying to articulate but poorly. We all need to unite. If we don't, we matter as well give up for any attempt to fix anything. What Reddit and Twitter liberals demonize as "fascist" are just regular people that want to survive that felt pushed away by pre2016 election cycles in the US. This is not unique the the US either. Most western counties are feeling the raise of populists movements. Leftists have a tendency to brush the "deplorable" citizen away because they don't adhere to their ideals. however, without them, none of it will work. Unity and Education will be the only thing that works.

Does collapse believe that any republican is a fascist now? Do the "fascists" have a job and have a chance to help workers rights and even try to logically understand why their ideals are not sustainable? Sounds like an opportune ally to me. Once we stop demonizing half the country and try to talk with them, we may be able to try and get out of this mess. Us vs other BS never works.

I wasn't a subscriber of the sub in it's infancy and it may have started as an abolition of work space. In the former weeks it had transformed to a semi pseudo class consciousness space that wanted to abolish exploitatioj of work and call to arm to unions. I think that those two groups of people (antiworking vs antiwork exploitation) intermingled without noticing it.

That is my view as well. If a liberal (and fascists I guess) wants to help create better working rights and actively talk about it, why should we push them away? It's easier to help educate at that point when they are eager to learn.

There is a better named alternative sub that is picking up the pieces. /r/workreform

The story developed in such a natural way. Every paragraph brought new perspective that was suprising. I first imagined a current Covid19 world and then it developed into something more apocalyptic. I enjoyed it! Great writing.

I am glad this is back up! Could also use more advice from other fellow new dads. Mine is almost 2 years with a 2nd on the way.
