Fight For A Union @fightforaunion.bsky.social · 16/09/2026
Just 5.9% of private sector workers belong to a union. In the 50’s, over 1/3rd of the entire workforce was organized. Surprising exactly no one, that was the most prosperous era in US history. Corporations then spent the next 70 years systematically dismantling worker power.

The biggest story in America is a president who has completely lost touch with reality. Who thinks the FBI let all the January 6 rioters into the Capitol, that he really won the 2020 election, that the Iran War is going well. Who, when occasionally confronted w reality, panics.

In the detail this is all as bad as it sounds, if not worse. At every level—from the ICE myrmidons rounding up people to meet quotas to the tech companies directing them to “target-rich” environments—the effort was to round up bodies and get paid. And to tell cover stories or sheer lies to justify.

Record profits are unpaid wages. In a just society, one 40-hour a week job should pay enough to support a nuclear family — one brief stint as CEO should not pay so much it creates generation wealth and empowers the 1% to buy our elections. #TaxTheBillionaires
