Are the rich finally noticing that the people working for them work better and don't burn your business down or throw molotov's at your house or shoot you if they can afford at least a decent life, then they have something to lose and will protect the workplace that provides that however if they have nothing to lose other than a shitty workplace then this happens and will keep happening and should keep happening because things need to change drastically and for that to happen sometimes drastic measures are necessary and how drastic it needs to be depends on those that aren't in the least bit interested in paying a livable wage.

No, they're buying robots faster.

There will always be a human involved because the robots are still far from perfect and robots repairing robots is still in a galaxy far far away.

For now... A human, not an entire factory of humans doing the work that need a living wage, and insurance/benefits, and vacation/sick days, and parental leave, and require training, and Human Resources, and conflict resolution, and...

I gotta imagine atleast a couple happen weekly “naturally” anyways, the USA is a large place with probably a millions+ warehouses. Could be nothingburger. The regular non-arson ones, dropped cig, careless worker, propane explosion. It’s just not significant news usually. But could be used to drum up maniacism

Remember Fight Club? They targeted corporate offices. Victims of capitalism depending on low paying jobs shouldn’t have to suffer more.

A movie about a fascist terror cell is not a good model for an actual working class revolution.

Working class revolution shouldn’t force the entire working class to suffer. These fires are great from 100 mile view but people are losing their jobs, cities are being polluted. Good start. Now let’s improve.

We're already suffering. Do you think we'll be able to dig out the ticks that are draining our society without some pain on our end?

Why do some get to decide the lives of others? That sounds like fascism.

MrFinnbean@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 135d (4 replies)

Um.. i think you kind of stumbled right on the reason why there are warehouses on fire right now.

Trickle down fascism. Nice.

Glytch@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 134d

You were just praising a fascist movie. Step back.

Glytch@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 134d (4 replies)

You want a say in the decisions? Participate in change.

venusaur@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 134d (3 replies)

That sounds pretty fascist to me.

Glytch@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 134d

Because you don't know what that word means.

Americans are gonna need to get a whole lot angrier if they want things to actually change. And that anger is going to have to start being focused and organized.

warehouses in the largest port city in the country catching fire "randomly" is pretty big.

At this time of year?

If this starts to get out of hand my money is on Bernie saying violence is never the answer and has no place in a democracy. Keep dancing and vote harder next time.
