Worker co-ops? You mean like literally owning the means of production is "Liberal Insanity Shithole" hasan-ok-dude

[-] Keld@hexbear.net 18 points 8 hours ago

Okay but quite a few people here would probably point out that co-ops are not actually socialism within a capitalist framework.

Yeah it's the closest thing to socialism on this list, but still not socialism lmao. Literally not one project mentioned on this list of 12 supposedly socialist things is actually socialist. I love American brainrot. Everything is socialism except socialism, which is authoritarian fascism.

Bro at least it’s more socialist than the Mughal Empire lmao

[-] RedWizard@hexbear.net 8 points 6 hours ago

Yeah I mean REI is a worker coop that has a contentious relationship with its own labor union. They've been in a multi-year dispute with the Union only until recently I think.

[-] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 7 points 6 hours ago

Wait, what happened recently? I hadn't heard there was an update to the situation

[-] RedWizard@hexbear.net 8 points 4 hours ago

Well my point was moot actually because they are a retail coop not a workers coop.

[-] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 4 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

Oh, yeah I forgot theyre consumer owned, not worker

Was there an update to the union situation though?

[-] Keld@hexbear.net 7 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

That doesn't seem like it should be possible even of the worker's coop sucked. You learn something new every day. I'm gonna look that up.

Edit: edited it so it sounds less like im accusing you of lying and more like im confused by this new fact.

Edit 2: Ah. REI is(/was? It's not entirely clear) apparently a consumer coop. Something like the British Coop stores or Coop Norden in Scandinavia. The customers are meant to own a share.

[-] RedWizard@hexbear.net 7 points 6 hours ago

Oh fuck, that's right. I forgot all about that. Well ignore me then lmao! Clearly in this case, the customer isn't always right.

In retail as the number of transactions increase the rightness of the costumer approaches zero
