Gregory's Server@atax1a They bother because for them it's about power, and power exists in its application. So at some level they have to. Having power they won't use is the same as not having it.

 @atax1a one might hope they learned a lesson from that experience, but I'm sure if they did it was exactly the opposite from what it should have been.  @jenniferplusplus the white-privileged segment of the labor pool disorganizes itself on its own, and the capitalists pushing on it certainly aren't helping, but from our perspective it seems redundant. @atax1a I think the capitalist pressure there is calibrated to keep the white privilege beneficiaries from ever being secure enough to grow beyond the comfort of that privilege. @jenniferplusplus yep, but we can't talk about that around white workers, because it sets off their fragility response and makes them think we're "racist against whites". |
@jenniferplusplus i mean, that's kind of what we were trying to say when we were leaning on our twitter coworkers to organize meaningfully. but apparently the entire time we were doing that, some white people were going around "organizing" a dinner-party-type union that had "politeness" bylaws that were designed specifically to keep me out.
