The Dredge Tank

The Dredge Tank. For posting all the low tier reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else. Got some bullshit from Reddit with 2 upvotes and want to share, post it here.

This community was created with the purpose that Rule 8 fans will just block it.

The rules are literally The Dunk Tank's rules, just without rule 8.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

capitalist coping "YES IF YOU ARE IN A CRITICAL INDUSTRY YOU HAVE LESS OF A RIGHT TO STRIKE"

Entire thread on r/news is just the same sentiment of libs worried about their treats while the rest of America is already stuck in poverty and the world suffers already from American economic dominance.

Imagine if your doctors earning 300k a year decide to strike to demand 600k a year and people are dying left and right as a result

Uh, yeah, that's basically what the people who get paid that much do. They say "I want more money", and then they get it because they are too important for employers to freeze out, or are valuable enough to get hired practically anywhere the second you let them go.

Turns out strikes are just that, but instead of one person, it's a bunch of people!

Wait, so you're telling me that when labor cooperates, they wield massively more power than if they act as an atomized individual?

Plus doctors have things like the AMA which are effectively unions. Except, instead of improving the conditions of everyone, they achieve benefits for their "class" by restricting entry to the field and lobbying for BS regulations and rules.

AKA what Craft unionism does to a mfer.
