This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
- No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)
- We support indigenous liberation as the primary contradiction in settler colonies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel
- If you post an archived link (excluding archive.org), include the URL of the original article as well
- Unless it's an obvious shitpost, include relevant sources
- For articles behind paywalls, try to include the text in the post
- Mark all posts containing NSFW images as NSFW (including things like Nazi imagery)

Well I guess so, it was a strike. But the Trotskyist members were there on their own account instead of striking it seemed so their vision of it might be a bit skewed.
Personally I am all for (a version of) an indefinite strike but I doubt ABVV and ACV want to do that given their ties to Vooruit and CD&V so as to not jeopardize their positions on the negotiations. I also don't feel like there is a party ready to back the unions, able to provide the neccessary context to the working class people apart from PVDA-PTB but even then I´m not too confident in how they will handle that with no allies apart from the unions. Vooruit will never back PVDA and neither will Groen I´m sure.
yeah exactly, it seems like things are not bad enough for unions to completely turn their back on the government and burn all bridges, same with greens and socialists
The thing is that there are some really serious things that are being proposed that they cannot ignore I think, otherwise people will be royally fucked in the coming years and-or decades. And simply remaining idle with some accepted strikes in between is not going to solve it, so at some point they would have to do something more serious.
