Do you think workers who work in factories that make bombs to kill civilians in Gaza will have incentives to stop wars and genocides?
This is a very real issue that pertains to labor organizing within the Imperial Core, and why labor movement without anti-imperialism can easily swerve into national socialist stance that propagates and perpetuates the imperialist ambitions of the empire.
Absolutely they would not. But I do think blaming the workers themselves is not the best thing to do, labor movement by itself really isn’t enough, there has to be a party to spearhead the movement, but I guess that is very far away from reality right now
Also, just to make sure you don’t misunderstand me, I think this union is dogshit. They should be on strike for many more reasons, do picket lines and possibly destroy the machinery. Even for just reclaiming the salary they’re bad.
