I'm confused about unions. Why do they need to vote from workers to unionize? Why can't they just have a group of people get together and organically negotiate a wage with management? I mean why even call it a union?

If I'm a welder and I'm out drinking with the other workers can I just say "hey everyone let's all agree to have one guy argue for us to the boss to end "certain policy" and if they don't then we will strike" would such a thing be illegal under current American law? Why don't more people do that?

You'd think if unions have worked at all in the past 200 years we would have had communism by now. Unions are clearly cucked and will do nothing but sabotage state planning

??? I don't care ???
I just want more money and better bennies. And for the boss to stop making me work so much forced overtime. Like shit dude what are you on about?

I just wondered this because I've organized a mass job walk off just as a fuck you to shitty management. We all got hired at another company and all said we weren't coming in on the same day lmao. It really fucked them. I was just sitting here thinking damn we coulda actually done something with that.

Depends on the size of the shop tho. I've had a shop of like 20-30 guys. Each one was vital for their role and even if one guy took a day off it totally screwed up our entire production assembly. I usually hang with around 5-8 people at each job so it wouldn't be hard at all to just shut down everything. Especially in us trades since there's not a lot of people who can do shit and even less that aren't constantly drunk or high lmao

Holy fucking shit you moron you realise one of the very first things the Bolshevik party did was agitate in labour Unions. How the fuck do you think they got to the place where they could plan the economy.

Dengism had gone way too far now it’s time to stop

Yeh but what happens when you shut down everything and the rest of the shop is pissed at you all for doing so, so can’t just claim to speak for people, it will alienate them

Pretty much every conceivable tactic has been tried by communists over the past 200 years and none of them have a high success rate. Saying unions are bad because they have a history of cucking out is like saying armed revolution can never work because most attempts at one have been crushed.

Well they can be angry if they want or join the strike. We'll announce it to everyone. They'll be even more pissed when they see we came back with a fat wage increase lol

This was mostly in the past I'm unemployed cause of covid and then just hung around using up my savings. I was just wondering if it's even legal because they always have news where union votes fail and I'm like why do they have to vote? What laws govern this?

It depends on the state, especially if they're so-called "right to work" states. But broad strokes, it's stuff like
