MODERATORS
What you saw with the labor movements of that time is that they rejected the war because they saw it as a war of the elites in which young working class people were sent off to die. I guess that's the reasonable take to have but propaganda machines unfortunately got the best of them and they weren't able to properly influence the war. It was also different for UK labor movements versus Belgian labor movements as the latter were facing invasion on their own soil.
