By workers he clearly means labor unions. Individual people who are not engaged in the revolutionary struggle or the defense of communism should not have access to guns (or any weapon for that matter). Western leftists, particularly American ones, have liberal brain worms because they intertwined this with the second ammendment. Not everyone who is a worker should be entrusted with a fucking gun, the organizations that represent workers however should. Its the same argument with cars, are cars bad? Not inherently, but we as a society should be phasing them out. Western leftists listen to China challenge (HARD)
Relax, its all central planning. Its all working towards fighting climate change eventually. What you should really be worried about is the west, they are off the rails.
I do worry about the west more
