If you still dont know that central London is threaded with protestors today then the media is doing exactly what it's bosses are making dirty money from.
The beautiful unity of free folk exercising their right to strike. While they still can.
Solidarity today and every day.

The #Republicans are winning this battle hands down, and looking like the party of the working class. We're rehashing Germany in the 1930s.

A terrific resource for anyone researching #PullmanPorter ancestors, from the wonderful #Newberry #Genealogy Library in #Chicago:
"Teach with primary sources from the Newberry's collections. This FREE lesson plan teaches students about the #Pullman Company--one of the largest employers of #AfricanAmericans in the early 20th century--and the #porters who worked there."

When are we going to believe workers? Rail workers told us a major reason to strike was safety and decaying infrastructure. We knew better, and broke the strike.
But we did put a McKinsey consultant in charge of DOT. Not even picking on dude specifically, but whose side do you think Pete is going to take in all this? Hard wired. We need to demand better, ya know?

Public ownership is clearly the best path forward for the rail industry.

Wasn’t there something in the news recently about how #railworkers were demanding better contracts, time off, and other stuff and then Congress and Biden told them to STFU and get back to work?
It’s really hard to remember, because it was like 350 Musktweets ago…

Maybe it’s time to write your Congresspeople and ask why they decided to vote for a train disaster? Why did they kill worker’s right to free market rights to negotiate their compensation? Why are worker’s the one’s who seek to protect the efficient function of our transport system and the “owners” keep destroying it and walking off with billions?

It’s not enough to strip down worker head count, plunge a limited resource of rail track for national commerce in the midst of swinging profits, but it is also necessary for industry oligarchy to silence the press.

Remember how Biden used the excuse the economy would implode if a rail strike happened? Yeh, the economy is really reeling with a whole track outta commission for how long again? Biden stripped your free market rights to negotiate your compensation.
