Today in Labor History November 9, 1963: At Miike coal mine, Miike, Japan, an explosion killed 458, and hospitalized 839 with severe carbon monoxide poisoning. Most of the survivors suffered permanent brain damage as a result. The miners’ exposure to the toxic gas was exacerbated by the mine’s ventilation system, which helped to spread the toxic gas, and by managers who wouldn’t let workers leave the mine. Just three years earlier, Miike miners had engaged in the largest labor-management dispute in Japanese history.

Today in Labor History November 8, 1892: 20,000 black & white workers united for a General Strike in New Orleans. In the wake of the streetcar drivers’ labor victory earlier in the year, in which they won a closed shop and shorter workday, a massive organizing campaign led to the creation of dozens of new unions and greater demands from the city’s workers. On October 24, several thousand members of the Triple Alliance (teamsters, scalesmen and packers) struck for overtime pay and the 10-hour day. Many members of the Alliance were African American. The bosses used race-baiting to try and divide the workers, but failed. Members of other unions started to join in solidarity, leading to a General Strike on November 8. The strike successfully bled the banks of half their pre-strike holdings. Finally, the bosses agreed to sit down with both black and white union leaders and agreed to the 10-hour day and overtime pay, but not a universal closed union shop.

I have a teenage daughter so via social osmosis I have far more knowledge of than I should

I also hear stories of abusive, toxic fans and management in the K-Pop machine

It's alarming

So this is good to see:

"Former Teen Top member , better known by his stage name C.A.P, has been appointed head of the preparatory committee for ’s first-ever idol - a move that could reshape how the K-pop industry addresses ’ "

Scheinbar bereichern sich und die persönlich dabei und verkaufen unsere Zukunft an die fossile Industrie.

Können wir bitte bei der kommenden Landtagswahl in BaWü die FDP aus dem Landtag schmeißen? Danke!

For those of you looking at starting recall petitions on Alberta MLAs who voted to strip Albertans of our Charter rights with the notwithstanding clause, I strongly implore you to also consider their votes and actions in relation to removing AISH and replacing it with the ADAP, which not only affects a 10% clawback of benefits for those who qualify, but also puts up more barriers for qualifying and reduces allowable income by 67%.

While Albertans are standing up in droves because our charter rights and freedoms are being threatened by this government, our most vulnerable populations are being killed off by this same government.

This is a heartless betrayal of their oaths to public office. Please investigate these MLAs not only for their support of the notwithstanding clause, but also for their support of ADAP.

I need to give you a reminder, that unions are non-partisan political organizations. If a union needs to stand up to a certain government, the union is doing their job because the government isn't. ESPECIALLY (but not exclusively) in the public sphere. It doesn't matter who the political party is in charge, the union is not doing their job if they are not fighting for their accountability. In the public sphere the government is directly related to the employer, but even in the private sphere a government can engage in anti-worker policy and make themselves an enemy.

The UCP and their supporters are spreading an awful lot of false rhetoric about the ATA and the AFL, claiming that they're "partisan" NDP affiliated organizations. No, unions are for the workers. The NDP is a worker party, as long as they stick to their roots. Unions aren't giving them a pass because of affiliation. The NDP is simply not a traditionally anti-worker organization and doesn't traditionally engage in anti-worker behavior. The UCP has since their formation in 2017 and their first term in office starting in 2019, been anti-union and anti-worker. If they aren't the enemy of unions, then the union is corrupt (and probably a "company union" like CLAC).

Unions will always stand up for workers, and push back against anti-labour government. That now means bringing down the UCP, and that is not partisan. That is the result of the UCP's governance. Any union who is not fighting the UCP is corrupt.

Governments are supposed to stand up for the people, too. Their job is to be the representative of the people, to support them against the exploitation of those holding capital power. This includes funding and supporting public services and supports which we entrusted to them through our labour. This includes regulating wealth distribution, so the people are not exploited. Any government who works for the wealthy elite and takes rights and power away from the people is corrupt. Unions exist because the government can't be trusted to do their job without unions holding them accountable.

The UCP is corrupt, and unions are doing their job when they stand up to them. The unions you are seeing in Alberta right now have said that enough is enough. They are strong, healthy, honest, and hardworking unions. I have never been more proud of Albertans than I am right now, in the midst of these labour movements. Not just the unions but the huge influx of support from all. We are mobilizing people to use THEIR COLLECTIVE POWER to fight back against corrupt positions of power. This is a people's movement, and Alberta is fighting for what's right.

This government can stuff their lies and slander up their hole.

"Unions are partisan" is just the UCP's way of saying, "We don't want unions to do their job as a political organization."

Rent is high. Groceries are impossible. But instead of taxing billionaires, the govt is pushing Bill C-12 to deport workers.

Syed Hussan explains how migrant blaming is a strategy to distract us.

Stop Bill C-12. Stop the scapegoating:

Da sollten alle so gar nicht überrascht sein:

Gezielt baut der Kreml Kontakte zu Abgeordneten von AfD und BSW auf. Mit ihnen will er die gegen Russland verhängten Sanktionen sowie die Unterstützung der Ukraine untergraben. Nun treffen AfD-Politiker offenbar erneut Putins Scharfmacher Medwedew in Russland.

Hauptgegner

Das ist aber gemein, da beschützt und die die AfD die ganze Zeit vor dem und der und dann sowas:

Russland will demnach auf die Abgeordneten einwirken, damit sie zentrale Projekte von Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz untergraben

Also das kannst du dir nicht bieten lassen !!!

Komm schon, mach mal !
