    I mean, the vibe I get from this article is that white collar IT and infrastructure roles need to unionize. Laying off other working class and then celebrating it while the executives are still shit rich is aloof. Work is work, and this sucks.

      Yep. Articles like this just pit the working class against each other. Delivery drivers vs IT guys is more exciting for executives than workers vs execs.

      I’ll say this 500x if I have to. People who manage an employee or are supervisors can’t unionize. People who make company decisions can’t unionize.

      100% this.

      Unions are on the rise: good

      Thousands of people being laid off because companies throw away human lives every 3 months to pay 5 rich people quarterly rather than running responsible business: bad

      We all need to unionize.
