It’s the communist Christmas y’all. I am looking forward to a day of unity, marches, and workers getting together.
For most of the world it seems to be a day off (not looking at you, The Netherlands).
Enjoy!
it’s “Loyalty Day” in the US
Happy May Day Comrades…a day to chill n be cool
the actual labor day
Happy labor day comrades. Apart from Holland (cringe) where else in the world is it NOT considered a day off?
This weirdly says that Belgium has it on a different day which is not true
Sweden definitely celebrates it as labor day, lots of marches and stuff
Why is India and Sri Lanka not red? We do celebrate? It’s an actual holiday?
It’s an official holiday in Denmark, so this map isn’t correct
In Canada, we get the day off, but not until September.
The US
except for me, it has been 10 months since iast worked, I’m unemployed :(
“Worker” in this context doesn’t mean “currently employed”, it means “working class person”.
A working class person, a proletarian, is anyone who needs to sell their labour power to survive. As opposed to someone doesn’t need to work to survive, who can live off of profits from capital they own.
ik ik, just kidding a little and venting, since im proletariat, im subjects to the wills of the market and have no employment consequently no money to my stuff and im surviving of my parents
So glad to have the day off today (by coincidence) lol. I kinda want to read more about the Haymarket uprising in Chicago that started May Day, does anyone have any good articles or book suggestions on said topic? Thank you in advance!
This book was my intro to the Haymarket Affair.
There’s also this section of the autobiography of Mother Jones, and in general a lot of info from the IWW archive.
I have my soviet and China flag hanging in my room for this day o7
I totally forgot to wear my May Day pin too 😞
Happy labor day, comrades! A shame people don’t celebrate May 1st in Canada (in Brazil the day is very celebrated).
Only holiday I celebrate.
