"we don't want to create an us-and-them mentality with management"

Hey, dipshit, it IS us versus them! WE didn't make it that way!

Fucking politically illiterate libs. Literally think the fucking company is a family.

    inoculation

    Very important. Especially liberal friends I know who prepared for work place action did fail when they weren't inoculated (cause they didn't present their demands or didn't push through).

    Funny enough those were and often are those that didn't want talk about inoculation, since it was so "hostile" and their boss is "nicer than those other bosses".

    Also having an active vote in which people have to actively say yes for action is sometimes helpful, to have this collective decision baseline.

    That said I had some success with "stress tests", to gauge what people were willing to do. The term I didn't know till recently, but basically seeing who does stuff and how they do it.

      Yes, stress tests, i.e. structure tests, are also a great idea. See who shows up to meetings. See who volunteers to do actual things. The real structure test is the first real action, of course, which should be not just a list of demands but a walkout or similar.
