This #LaborDay, a day set aside as a national holiday in 1894, we commemorate the #laborunion movement, the demand for an eight-hour work day, better working conditions, #fairwages, and an end to #childlabor.
#Genderequality, #racialequality, fair #farmprices, and #farmworker rights are separate issues but all related to the struggle of the #unions for a fair wage and decent working conditions.

This is a really good piece on history of SEIU and the now no longer existing Change To Win but goes into a lot that is worth reading and a good critique of top down union leadership and the importance of member lead reform movements https://popularresistance.org/seiu-and-the-carpenters-still-changing-to-win-or-changing-the-wrong-way/ #union #seiu #ChangeToWin #carpenters #UNITEHERE #Laborers

"but if you're pro-union, why are you anti-cop-union?" because #cops are not #laborers. what cops do is not #labor. they are #enforcers of the #laws that #oppress laborers and exist solely to protect capital. don't bother me with #stupid #questions.

"@historickomodo submission: “Salvador Allende didn’t die for this shit.”
For newbies playing along at home, this #meme circulates all over the place on #liberal pages, and it’s filled with #contradictory pieces of #ideology. Firstly, one can’t really be a #capitalist and a #socialist at the same time – if you support capitalist #ownership over the means of #production, then you support capitalism; if you support #democratic ownership over the means of production, where people have a say in the #institutions and #activities they contribute to, then you support socialism. I don’t know how to make it more succinct than that. Also, #communism is the post-scarcity natural conclusion of socialism, a #stateless/ #moneyless/ #classless #society where #socially-operated #property is held in common and #people “contribute according to their #abilities and receive according to their #needs”; #statelessness is a #fundamental aspect of the ideology, ergo a #totalitarian #government “forcing everybody to be exactly equal” is not communism.
Secondly, channeling government power to curb capitalism’s self-destructive excesses is merely Keynesian #welfare capitalism or Scandinavian social democracy, both of which try to use the state to mitigate structural tension within the parameters of the system (and all-too-often to wither away class consciousness and pushes for actual socialist change).
Thirdly and lastly, “the #economy and society being run democratically to meet #human needs rather than #profit for a #greedy few” is literally socialism. Capitalism by definition will always have a tiny class of owners pulling the #economic and #political strings; as long as they own the means of production and accrue profit off the backs of the #laboring class, they will always, always have disproportionate power in society. Such is the #nature of class relations – throughout history, laboring classes have produced the things society needs while ruling classes have sat and accrued the most #wealth. If labor produces all, why not have a society democratically run by #laborers?"

May Day and even the american #LaborDay do not exist due to singular acts of super charismatic individuals or the machinations of a small group of people or an org.
#MayDay exists because individuals - #workers, #laborers, husbands, wives -can gather together, express their power from the bottom up & leave for their descendents, the children, grandchildren & so on of these people long forgotten - a legacy that belongs to none of them individually, but rather to all of us collectively. #labor

#AIart is #theft. Unless the #training #dataset is provably sourced from the #public domain (none I know of are), #AI is simply reworking other people's #art. Further, these AI generators are powered by underpaid #laborers, making it wage theft too.
Be advised I #block all AI art accounts. I don't like thieves.

Today in Labor History December 19, 1907: 239 workers died in a coal mine explosion in Jacobs Creek, Pennsylvania, known as the Darr Mine Disaster. It was the third major U.S. mine disaster in December 1907 (the deadliest mine fatality month in US history).

Today in Labor History December 15, 1914: A gas explosion at Mitsubishi Hōjō coal mine, in Kyushu, Japan, killed 687. It was the worst mining disaster in Japanese history. The explosion was caused by a spark igniting methane and coal dust. The blast was so powerful, it sent the cage (shaft elevator) shooting out of the shaft. In Japan, miners’ wives worked with them in the mines. Consequently, 20% of those who died were women.

Today in Labor History December 7, 2010: Julian Assange was arrested in London and the US declared war on Wikileaks. To this date, he is still in jail in the UK, and still facing deportation to the US, where he could be charged with espionage and sentenced to death, for the crime of journalism, and exposing US war crimes.
