It just feels needlessly divisive in this context. I'd understand applying it more to managers and such whose class interests are closer to the bourgeoisie, but tradesmen are working class in every sense
Just leave the term out of the conversation. It's not useful for labor organizing until you already have a powerful labor org. It's an imperialism thing, it never ever needs to be a term used at a union meeting unless your union actually has leverage or could gain leverage over part of the global supply chain. If you're in that position you already have a super radical union. Until workers in the imperial core can actually have a say in their participation in the global supply chain via worker emancipation can we actually do anything about it.
