#UnitedAutoWorkers President #ShawnFain is throwing out the traditional #union playbook and preparing for a #strike, possibly against three #automakers at once

The #UAW is talking about a 32-hour, 4-day work week. The #Biden admin is looking at overtime pay being expanded to more people. Writers strikes are ongoing. Pro #union sentiment is up everywhere.
Economic anxiety troubles #liberalism, which decays unless it's constantly reinvigorated. And that anxiety encourages a shift - either to #socialism, #fascism or a "third position" (ie fascism again).
But the UAW's #ShawnFain talks like a Marxist, and right-wing pundits are offended.
