The ability of unions to gain recognition & members in (new) workplaces, though new measures to increase their ability to access workplaces is expanding. So, once again, here's a key economic hypocrisy: economists often decry unions as a collective action that undermines efficiency... but at the very same time they celebrate the collective acton of capital, via shareholding that supports businesses... If you want to see classist hypcrocsy, this is it! #unions #class #politics #economics

I'm happy for Karen Attiah and grateful to her for sticking up for what's right at great personal cost. There are a lot of positive lessons to draw from this. One of the most important is that this is why we need labor unions, and this is why the fascists are so desperate to destroy and disempower them. #KarenAttiah #WashingtonPost #journalism #unions Arbitrator orders Washington Post to reinstate Karen Attiah with full back pay and benefits https://www.democracydefendersfund.org/news/karen-attiah-secures-landmark-first-amendment-victory/

RE: https://follow.ethanmarcotte.com/@beep/117032894076902807 I just emailed the Wikimedia foundation and told them that I can't make a donation until @wwu@social.wikiworkersunited.org has a good deal. Here's their contact page if you want to do the same. https://wikimediafoundation.org/contact/ #TechUnions #unions #WikiMedia

The Wikimedia Foundation hasn’t just refused to recognize their workers’ unions; they’ve also hired one of the most notorious union-busting firms out there. https://medium.com/regarding-wikipedia/the-wikimedia-foundation-hired-the-union-busters-its-own-encyclopedia-warned-about-42b7142a5cd1 #1u #unions #TechUnions

A bundle of 150 games created by the United Videogame Workers union to support videogame industry workers in the US and Canada impacted by layoffs. "Reports say 33% of the industry lost their jobs in the last two years, and the jobs they could fill are disappearing as CEOs try to replace them with AI." https://itch.io/b/3802/game-industry-hardship-fund https://kotaku.com/itchio-game-developer-hardship-bundle-necrosoft-games-layoffs-unionization-2000720782 #videogames #unions #layoffs #ItchIO

My game Jack Dragon and the Stone of Peace is included in this Game Industry Hardship Fund bundle. You get that and 100+ other really cool games (like Skatebird, Cook Serve Delicious, A Short Hike, Arranger, Eldritch and loads of other good stuff) for just $10 USD. That's a BARGAIN!!! Cheap as chips! AND you get to help game workers who need it. Amazeballs! https://itch.io/b/3802/game-industry-hardship-fund #unions #GameWorkers #CWA #UVW #gamingnews #gaming #gamesale #indiedev #indiegames

"Some doctors are pushing to organize the 10,000 attending physicians within the University of California system, setting in motion what could become the largest union of employed physicians, organizers say. Factors driving the organization effort include hiring freezes, increasing patient loads, long hours, and clinician burnout..." https://www.medpagetoday.com/publichealthpolicy/workforce/122364 #heathcare #physicians #workers #labor #unions #organizing #california

Email sent to donate@wikimedia.org: I have previously donated to Wikimedia, and hereby state that all future donations are on hold until Wikimedia voluntarily recognizes labour unions in all countries where the foundation operates. I will also use whatever influence I have to further this opinion. This is not a threat, but a simple fact. Don't drag your feet behind you, please. Do the right thing. Sincerely (name) #Wikipedia #Wikimedia #unions
