    The law of the jungle works both ways though. Maybe we’ll go back to Teamsters removing kneecaps from bosses too.

      Yeah the NLRB was in part a way to defang the militant labor movement. Taking it away is not exactly a big brain move.

        They aren’t our smart people, they’re our rich, powerful, or their kids. Mostly private school isolated twats who think they know more than everyone else.

    SpaceX quoted James Madison in The Federalist Papers: “The accumulation of all powers legislative, executive and judiciary in the same hands” is “the very definition of tyranny”

    Somehow I don’t think we should be accepting commentary on what constitutes tyranny from someone who owned slaves

      Also the whole “being dead for 200 years” part. I’m not listening to some dead nerd.

        Listening to dead people is fine, treating their word as gospel is not.

    This is a good reason to get involved with radical labor organizing right now! We will need all the tools and experience we can get for the increased destruction of union legalism.

    Please keep in mind that historical naive class consciousness developed in the US into radical organizing via a decades-long process with a far less developed propaganda machine. It’s not inevitable that proletarianization leads directly to this class consciousness again, as our own ability to organize may be effectively hampered by the state and whatever the new Pinkertons are (maybe it’ll just be Pinkertons again lol). To avoid a period in which we fuck around and get crushed, we need to get ahead of this as much as possible by being aware of what’s coming, how to organize, why we organize, and how we educate.

    Good. The major unions have become parasitic tools of the state and finance capital due to the NLRA model. A new regime of labor law would undoubtedly be a sharp blow against American workers, but would also force them to actually exercise their power in ways they haven’t in years.

      Yeah the entire purpose of the NLRB is to manage disputes between labour and capital without escalation and generally on the side of capital
