We better hope it's just strikes -- because frankly, the alternative is violence. I would prefer strikes. It's good to remember, however, that in the past peaceful strikes were very often met with violence from the oligarchs.

It's also true that many of the things being done to workers today can be viewed as a form of violence. Not letting a worker urinate as needed for example, is something I would view as violence.

I am an inherently peaceful person. I will not call for violence. It would be absurd to believe, however, that violence isn't going to happen. History (and Luigi) suggest it's coming.

Great piece. The fact that this reality was not made clear to working people across the country even after Trump and Musk openly displayed and even boasted about their disdain for workers was political malpractice by Harris, her campaign and the leadership of the Democratic Party.
