        The decision of a company to not pay a living wage has forced a man’s hand to fight back against his own oppression. Unfortunately others have been caught in the crossfire.

        Let’s place the blame where it belongs.

          Two comments up, I said that I was not taking a position on the act. But to suggest he was forced to burn down that building is edgelord at best.

              If that were to happen to my place of work, I’d be screwed. I’m not sure that I’d see it has “having solidarity”, more so “unemployment is less than half of what I take in each week, and I have bills, and rent. Fuck.”. I have solidarity with those who wish to come together, to fight for what’s important to them. Destroying the workplace takes their voices away.

                You would be screwed because of the same system of oppression that the one burning down the place of work was suffering from which pushed them to that action.

                It’s called solidarity and class consciousness.

                Destroying the work place is praxis.
