Friendly reminder that trade unionism in the imperial core is in a terrible state. Unions are not inherently socialist things or even good things, they are just tools that can be wielded for local worker desires (and often don't even do that).

When we speak of worker power and workplace organization we must understand it through a critical lens, otherwise we will end up building the structures that will be the end of us and whitewash, and even build up, imperialism.
