Shut it down. How do you like us now, baby? oasis Aug 2018 #1

What factory? jberryhill Aug 2018 #2

Read the linked article tenderfoot Aug 2018 #3

No factory identified in the article either jberryhill Aug 2018 #5

That must mean this never took place. tenderfoot Aug 2018 #7

I was curious because the video did not seem to show a factory jberryhill Aug 2018 #10

So they didn't really walk off the job because it was just a construction site? tenderfoot Aug 2018 #11

Stop lying about what I asked jberryhill Aug 2018 #12

It was construction site not a factory! tenderfoot Aug 2018 #14

I did not say the video is fake jberryhill Aug 2018 #17

There's nothing wrong with trying to fill in information that wasn't included More_Cowbell Aug 2018 #26

I'm in agreement with jberryhill. Get enough of the facts straight when posting, and provide erronis Aug 2018 #33

He is black. (I read the interview with him and that is mentioned.) nt tblue37 Aug 2018 #60

I assume that this was the case lapfog_1 Aug 2018 #65

His job does not require completing a sentence. It involves fucking knowing how to weld. nt Blue_true Aug 2018 #76

Workers Unite! lunasun Aug 2018 #6

Yes, unite. And we'll do it faster if the video narrator spoke with more conviction DemocracyMouse Aug 2018 #22

He was filming as it happened it was not a planned video so I am guessing he went through lunasun Aug 2018 #24

Jacobin Mag? oberliner Aug 2018 #9

They're the ones that chose to interview him. tenderfoot Aug 2018 #13

All those sources you listed are awful oberliner Aug 2018 #15

This looks suspicious, and more like a fabricated video. Equinox Moon Aug 2018 #32

I went and followed the guy, I think it's legit. ismnotwasm Aug 2018 #34

The story explains more detail jberryhill Aug 2018 #36

Thank you. So basically this is another fake non-story here on DU. cwydro Aug 2018 #40

Collective action by workers walking in protest is a non-story? Hortensis Aug 2018 #52

Worker solidarity and collective action is apparently very concerning for some here... n/t Devil Child Aug 2018 #59

And pride in their conviction apparently tiresome? Hortensis Aug 2018 #61

If you read what jberryhill posted, you'll see that cwydro Aug 2018 #68

No, from what I understand, the trumpsters Hortensis Aug 2018 #70

If you find it a non-story then you may belong on a different site Blue_Adept Aug 2018 #66

Fabricated. There will be more of these trying to get DUers to get hot about fake news. erronis Aug 2018 #35

A subcontractor pulled his crew jberryhill Aug 2018 #71

You're not very familiar with construction and how a big job works. The GC subs most juxtaposed Aug 2018 #72

That doesn't make the subs "employees" of the GC jberryhill Aug 2018 #73

you're not very familiar with labor issues union or non-union and how one works. juxtaposed Aug 2018 #74

Their boss said "we're leaving" jberryhill Aug 2018 #75

I love this! cwydro Aug 2018 #69
