“Dating back to World War 1, the ILA was always proud to note that ‘ILA Also Means Love America’ when it came to its “No Strike Pledge” in handling U.S. military cargo at all its ports,” said ILA President Harold Daggett, who served in the U.S. Navy and saw combat duty during the Vietnam War. “We continue our pledge to never let our brave American troops down for their valour and service and we will proudly continue to work all military shipments beyond October 1st, even if we are engaged in a strike.”
The ILA’s Military Consultant, Gen. (Ret.) Tim McHale, weighed in on the ILA’s “No Strike Pledge” for U.S. Military cargo: “The U.S. Government representatives I have been engaging with are very happy and satisfied with the ILA who have always been there in tough situations, and always successfully accomplished the mission. Our U.S. Military knows that the ILA will conduct military load out operations even if there is a strike by ILA.”
critical support to their strike and all, but example of international solidarity this aint

we will proudly continue to work… even if we are engaged in a strike.”
The leverage-understanders have made a union
This isn’t even a US specific thing — these are the same social chauvinists trend that Lenin was railing against around the failure of the 2nd international in Europe, which is illustrated in their ‘proud’ WWI history.
Everyone knows the best way to negotiate is to completely trash your leverage to engage in servile bootlickin’
Like telling liberals ‘please move left but I’ll always vote for you anyway’
Settlers (J. Sakai)
currently at pages ~100-110 and this was my very first thought
Bro the haters really were white chauvinists I’m on the floor 😭😭
They always are
Disco Elysium but Evrart and Joyce are the same character.
Strikes in the global south: actually refuses to work and directed directly and indirectly against amerikkkan hegemony and imperialism
Strikes in Amerikkka: we will only work if it materially supports genocide
fuck their strike, yankees can suffer without international solidarity.
Anyone who gleefully fuels the US war machine isn’t a ““worker”” in my book. Let the colonists fight between themselves.
Nah, porky annoyance is always good, but thats between porky and them. (also why both people cited are retired military, christ) ila-gon up in there
Agreed. They are either with the global majority, with the true force of humanity, or they are against it. Thankfully humanity has built itself up to a point where the tides are truly and fully turning, now.
They can either get with the program, or resist and be eradicated. The chance will always be there, right up until they’re at the wall, yet so many of them undoubtedly will reject it till the end. Fuck them, the beatings will continue until they can express even the slightest humanity, and if they can’t may they die with their empire.
Fucking weak. I won’t shed a tear if the national guard starts teargassing them for refusing to transport Beanie Babies.
Bernie was the compromise.
MFW “leftism” in Amerikkka is someone suggesting to NOT reimport all the exploitation we do in the global south back here, and STILL getting booed for being too far left.
:pain:
Third Worldists proven correct yet again
fyi third worldist is an exonym that was later adopted, like dengist.
The imperial core proving it lacks any recognizable revolutionary potential; exhibit 238285-cdx…

Yup. The grad’s mod staff has reached and breached their credit limit with me as far as my faith in their seriousness goes. I’d rather hang out with shitposters than people who my gut’s reading as smuggards and hypocrites; ESPECIALLY where the subject of COVID’s concerned. That shit has materially harmed TOO MUCH of my family and community for me to not crash out on a plague rat or a defender of such.

I won’t be the one to take away from their accomplishments; because I do believe on some level that they do their thing out here-- but I have little tolerance for the places where they contradict and where that infringes on me. Coexistence, but apart, is where I’m at with that-- and I wouldn’t know if they have or not; I by-choice don’t see their posts anymore.

Jesus Christ this is disappointing.
