@pluralistic I just finished your book "enshitification". I'm a 'tech worker' I guess, though I've never been to California or New York. I agree with your talk about unions, but I'm not sure how to actually do it. Your argument that the previous generation of labor organizers had it harder is obviously true. I don't have to contend with the pinkertons. However, if I use the word 'union' in the wrong tone/context I feel confident I'm going to be fired for some *totally unrelated and completely justified* reason. I'm not sure how we make progress in that context.
