    This is me trying to convince my co-workers to join a union because back in the day miners in my state were militant and after being locked up justly in horse pens for striking someone rigged dynamite to the Governor's front gate and blew him to smithereens and I think that would be cool if had a union that cool

      being locked up justly in horse pens for striking

      seems unjust to me

        The Supreme court also thought it was unjust, but the workers weren't going to walk away from that not without a fight.

    Where did you get the number for 3,000 dead? I tried looking more into the Banana Massacre but the numbers I found for the event were all super vague, ranging from like 100-2,000. But 3,000 is still significantly higher than even the high estimate provided?

    Posting memes huh? You know these four panel formats are common in neo nazi and misogynist forums right?

    I have some books on this if you’re ready to learn about why this is problematic.
