The United Auto Workers Are Looking to Unionize the Whole Auto Industry
In the wake of its historic strike victory, the United Auto Workers says thousands of nonunion autoworkers have reached out asking for support in organizing their plants. The UAW already has plans in motion to unionize the whole US auto sector.
You're viewing a single thread.
Every industry should be unionized. Enough of the honor system for the dishonorables
Absolutely. As the newest verse to Solidarity Forever goes:
They say our day is over; They say our time is through. They say you need no union if your collar isn't blue. Well that is just another lie the boss is telling you, For the Union makes us strong!
What force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one?
For the Union makes us strong...
The selfishness is what kills us cuz the more selfish will take it all and we have nothing left to fight over except life(style) itself. We all lose when that happens
Solidarity forever!
I'm sure someone with more sophisticated understanding of prose than I appreciates this, but the fact that the last line rhymes with nothing else is bugging the absolute shit outta me.
(I know the first line doesn't either but it doesn't stand out as much)
You've listened to the Pete Seeger song though right? Solidarity Forever is based on The Battle Hymn of the Republic. They both use an AAAB rhyming scheme and I think are in iambic octameter but I'm not a professional. Pete Seeger didn't write it, but I love his rendition. He's got alot of great labor songs.
It was written much earlier for the IWW's Little Red Songbook by Ralph Chaplin
Just add two pairs of ```like so
They say our day is over; They say our time is through. They say you need no union if your collar isn't blue. Well that is just another lie the boss is telling you, For the Union makes us strong!A lot of lemmy clients don't wrap text on code blocks, which can be annoying. I prefer the quotation blocks in general
For the longest time I didn't understand why some quotes were in unwrapped text blocks that made it unnecessarily difficult to read on mobile; difficult enough that I just passed over posts and comments that featured it.
Now I know that the code block feature is being used, and I feel unreasonably annoyed that it's being used for anything other than code blocks.
For the record, I'm using Connect.
