I don't hate the Europeans for having fair working conditions. I hate the rich assholes that make my home country such a shitty place to live and work in.

It's time to emulate the french and set the place on fire if they don't start treating us fair.

Or you can start with unions...

And how do you think unions come about? Historically it's by setting things on fire.

By actually talking to your coworkers about unionization, which is scarier for many of us than fantasies of an anonymous crowd.

It mostly depends whether unions are successful or not under the current administration. Unionizing has gone bad before. You can't always blame the workers for not believing it would help, theres a lot of pressure from the other side.
