    Didn’t think I’d be rooting for the capitalists to crush a strike, but hey, not my fault they chose to work for the Baby Killing Factory edgeworth-shrug

      what a dogshit take, even if you are only looking at the most immediate consequences the strike is a work stoppage and should be something you should support from the above.

        Ok, stop the work to halt production. Then when the strikes end, have Boeing oppress them again. Win-win for everybody who matters. You want to work for Boeing? Be my guest. Don’t complain to me for not caring when little eichmans get what they deserve.

        I disagree. They'd be glad with the work they did if they got paid enough. Manufacturing weapons to kill children. They can all rot in hell.

      Bro, people work where they can, it's not like we live in a society where we can choose freely where to work. And do not forget that people need to work to eat, it's not their fault if they live in capitalism, they have to do what they can to survive. Also, it does not matter who they work for, they are all capitalists at the end of the day, there is no relevant difference

          Absolutely they would not. But I do think blaming the workers themselves is not the best thing to do, labor movement by itself really isn't enough, there has to be a party to spearhead the movement, but I guess that is very far away from reality right now

            Also, just to make sure you don't misunderstand me, I think this union is dogshit. They should be on strike for many more reasons, do picket lines and possibly destroy the machinery. Even for just reclaiming the salary they're bad.

        Sure. I’ll make a deal, I’ll keep my mouth shut so I don’t scare off the hoes while you organize or whatever. In return, I get to keep being right when imperialists inevitably turn on the rest of the world for a dollar raise in their salary.
