One person under 30

I've been wanting to write something about how we live in a cannibal country that eats it's young because they can barely hide the contempt they have for the youth. This is another good example here.

Also none of these people have real jobs.

There's a lawyer who's been using an LLM to parse US labor law (which is almost exclusively case law) and make it much more accessible to regular people. It seems to be pretty good at that.

Not really more aggressive but the leash is definitely getting shorter. Labor's slashed, rules are getting enforced, problematic people are being fired. Welcome to the recession.

I mean, he has a Political Science degree

Political Science is a terrible reactionary discipline that inflicts brainworms on all of its students. Much in the same way modern academic economics comes from the reaction to Marx, so to did political science emerge. The impact Marx and Lenin left on the rest of the social sciences and philosophy left them far too radical for the academics that wanted to use Hobbes and Hamilton to give a facade of liberalism to their Nazism. The only good political scientist was Parenti and he wasn't allowed to work in the discipline for the last half-century of his life because he was immune to the fascist brainworms.

In terms of structure, that mass base cannot be held together by a thin layer of NGOs or by labor unions (representing only 10% of US workers), but must instead be united by a committed layer of organic leaders across every sector of our society.

This is how you know they're full of shit. Just spontaneously follow the leaders - because that strategy has just been killing it for the last century.

No actually to resist fascism you need durable institutions of the proletariat class, primarily a vanguard party and a strong labor movement. It's incredible that anyone thinks we can organize some sort of vague group of "organic leaders" to resist fascism but we can't organize workers into existing or new unions. This isn't to say our existing labor unions aren't dogshit but that's a separate critique. We need a vibrant worker's movement if we want anything good to happen.

It's actually something that railway workers sort of "won" way back in the 1920s almost a decade before the passage of the NLRA. Basically railway workers were so powerful that strikes and lockouts became too detrimental to commerce so Congress stepped in and decided that they would regulate labor relations in the industry. I think airlines were interpreted to fall under or encoded in the law a few decades later.

It was always unlawful for federal workers to strike. Reagan was just the first one to actually enforce the law on the matter and permanently replace striking workers, something that was uncommon in both the private and public sector at the time.

The unions totally folded after this rather than doing anything to fight back which is really why they've withered and died.

The child grinder provides a lot of good jobs. How else are those people supposed to feed their families?

Damn the PPW finally actually conquered something.

Love to be a shirtless roughneck getting all sweaty and oily with my boys on the rig

Idk why you'd think it was a honeypot. The feds definitely don't need you to put your info into a form to know that you're looking at PSL's website.

It's almost certainly because they have VAN or a similar database for their electoral work and they're trying to collect data for it as well as send you emails/texts. I'm not sure I agree with the efficacy of it but it's probably just electoral brain worms.

I was way too optimistic
