what are some left wing dog-whistles that would fly over a lib’s head but a fellow comrade would pick up on
my personal favorite is the Marx gun quote
:side-eye-1: no
Feel like anything about worker ownership works well. When talking to coworkers during the pandemic I pointed out “our bonuses got slashed this year, but executives get paid in stock and the stock went up this year. Why are we tightening the belt when we’re making their money?”
i like to break down to co-workers how much of a check we’d get a week if even a fraction of our gross profit was just paid directly to us (it typically blows our hourly wages out of the water).
I saw a tweet where a pizza place did that for a day to “show appreciation” and they were making like 78 dollars an hour.
Speaking of leftist dog-whistles…
Anyone have good lines for agitation that wouldn’t set off people’s anti-communist defense mechanisms?
Talk about workplace democracy a lot. Emphasizing how little power we have, and how much work we do, can get people thinking.
Also anything regarding healthcare /vacations/ etc can get people moving left pretty quick if they’re willing to think.
Also, while I’m fine with people being lazy and doing the bare minimum, many people have great ideas about how to make their jobs better/easier/more enjoyable buy are stifled by bosses/lack of say. Talking about helping eachother achieve things because apes together strong or whatever.
My boss makes a dollar…
