Shawn Fain, right after Biden was the first president to walk a union picket line and saved their pensions, came out and publically stated that he’d prefer Trump’s tariffs as a Pyrrhic victory rather than ripping off the Band-Aid that’s been covering a metastasizing tumor since the mid-70s
UAW endorsed Harris and union voters came through for him. In what way did UAW stab him in the back? www.americanprogressaction.org/article/whil...
While Other Voters Moved Away From the Democrats, Union Members Shifted Toward Harris in 2024
Although many demographic groups shifted their votes to favor Donald Trump in 2024 compared to 2020, Kamala Harris increased Democratic support among union voters.

Its the suburbs, not Seattle. Maybe the builders are just too cheap to put in fences when they build those subdivisions?
Although one place we lived outside Waco TX had banned privacy fences because they ruined the views or landscape or something. So I had to put in an aluminum picket fence.

Massive general strikes are the only "nonviolence" that solves anything. And even then you have to hold the picket line against pigs amd scabs. Some violence is inevitable to compel social change.

My new @apsrjournal.bsky.social is out! We find that crime victimization is associated with less voter turnout but more participation through non-electoral means. Living in a violent neighborhood has a similar, but weaker, association. Crime might push people from the ballot box to the picket line.

I wrote about the many films about President Park's 1979 assassination, now there's one about a failed earlier attempt that killed his wife.
The film isn't even playing at the festival, they're just trying to blacklist the actor, going so far as to picket Burger King because he's in an ad.

That dude's predecessor, President Park, actually WAS assassinated, and three separate major motion pictures have been made about it... a comedy, a drama, and a courtroom procedural. The assassin is the protagonist of all three. In between them, Park's daughter was elected, impeached, and jailed.

The novelist, Howard Fast, was a Communist jailed by HUAC who had to self publish. The screenwriter Dalton Trumbo, also jailed by HUAC and blacklisted. President John Kennedy had to cross a picket line to see it. Spartacus, released #OTD in 1960, was a smash.

Many of those who go out to picket and protest will turn you over to the Fascist police state the moment “destruction of property” is involved. We SHOULD be out there but the number of citizens who would betray the movement is large. I hope this changes SOON but the work is slow and frustrating.

Strike day 7. Went through to Edinburgh for a pleasant hour or so on the picket line at the School of Philosophy, Psychology, and Language Sciences chatting about philosophy and linguistics with colleagues. One of the open access journal platforms I normally maintain is still down.
Oh look, a direct impact of the strike at University of Edinburgh.

We've been without a deal since June 30. The government has been unwilling to address cost-of-living measures at the start of any negotiations, which is disappointing amidst an inflation/housing crisis.
