If an Amazon union is ever formed it is likely to be the closest thing America has to a full-on proletarian party just due to the opposition it would have to endure.
Amazon causing the rise of a newbrand of militant tech savy unionist that have found out how to sideline modern methods of union busting would be beautiful :iww:
In all honesty the IWW does still exist but their organizing was greatly impacted by events before and especially after WWII in which McCarthyism pretty much dismantled any militant organizers sympathetic to socialism. The Teamsters n contrast are a still active and powerful union that can flex it's strength to get the goods when needed.

It’s hard. Constantly building things up from nothing for it to go nowhere and fall apart.

Not to mention it might include hundreds of thousands of workers alone, with how massive Amazon is now.
My god, the sheer number of bombings they would be watching out for…
