Let’s normalize #LaborUnions in every industry! If Hollywood actors have SAG-AFTRA and NHL players have the NHLPA, why shouldn’t tech workers? https://wikiworkersunited.org #Wikipedia #Wikimedia #TradeUnions #Solidarity

    @seav@en.osm.town That's basically what @pluralistic@mamot.fr pushes for in every other article :) We sure need those, but it's pretty hard to start.

    @seav@en.osm.town I'm a software engineer. Technically I'm managing now. And I absolutely support this message. I don't get how software folks don't see the gap between what we make and what the bosses make. Like a company that I worked for that IPOd, the CEO got 1000x what the folks who'd been doing the actual work since the beginning got, and like 10000x what more recent hires like myself got. That ain't right.

    @seav@en.osm.town Ehhhh, the NHL is a poor example of a worker's union here. I get the point but there's plenty of better examples of organizations that exists to protect their members.
