Hell fucking yeah, now let’s throw the bosses out and start anarcho syndicalism…. No? Just me?

I’ll take an anarcho-syndicalism thanks!

Angry Americans: VERY INTERESTING THINGS GOING ON IN ITALY, HMMM

Trump: invades Chicago

Americans can’t do this though, because they’re owned little bitches who can’t live without the feel of daddy trumps little mushroom inside them.

Edit: vote guys! You gotta vote! And yell at people who didn’t so they know how much you hate them–how little you blame the people actually doing this.

Very. If it’s any consolation; most of them will die for it.

Off topic, but is your name a reference to Octopath Traveller?

No.

Well they can send angry tweets, so there is something

For many workers, the membership card mattered less than the struggle, and they did not hesitate to strike even if they were not members of the unions that called the strike.

This is common in Italy. A minor part of the workforce is part of a union (our unions are different from what an American might be used to, btw), mainly because membership has a cost (usually ~1% of your wages), and because many are afraid of what employers may think when they find out.

Non-members still regularly join strikes and protests when they care about the subjects.

arrow74@lemmy.zip on 01 Oct 2025 09:25 collapse

American unions are also paid through wages. Maybe a bit less than a full 1% though.

Unfortunately if you are a non-union worker and you strike you can and will be fired

Damage@feddit.it on 01 Oct 2025 09:58 collapse

Yeah my comment about them being different wasn’t pointing to being paid as a difference, sorry.

Neat, now do it again because Meloni screwed you and abandoned the flotilla.

Mrkawfee@lemmy.world on 01 Oct 2025 07:09 next collapse

Meloni is a Zionist prostitute. There are so many of them in European politics.

Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 01 Oct 2025 10:07 collapse

I strongly suspect the Israelis were running OPs in Europe similar to the one they ran with Epstein in the US and have a ton of blackmail material on ruling European politicians.

sadfitzy@ttrpg.network on 01 Oct 2025 10:22 collapse

It wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

There’s no length they’re not willing to go to protect their “holy land.”

Wow, Italy I’m impressed!
