the turds are attempting to hit back apparently The most ambitious U.S. industrial labor action in decades has halted production at three plants producing the Ford Bronco, Jeep Wrangler and Chevrolet Colorado, along with other popular models. But by Friday afternoon a ripple effect was felt. "Our production system is highly interconnected, which means the UAW’s targeted strike strategy will have knock-on effects for facilities that are not directly targeted for a work stoppage," Ford (F.N) said in a statement. It told 600 workers who are not striking not come to work on Friday and GM (GM.N) told some 2,000 workers at a Kansas car plant that their factory likely would be shut down next week for lack of parts, stemming from a nearby plant being struck.

like im not gonna sit here and tell you with a straight face that joe biden is a pro union president, since we’ve literally never had one of those ever, but he sure doesn’t seem to think it’s his job to do anything about strikes outside of the extremely specific case of railway workers, the one category of worker that actually has a specific law allowing the government to gently caress them

Biden a nlrb has been pretty friendly to unions, but when push came to shove he broke a strike. Besides he may not even win the election.

The NPC posted:I'm thinking this targets different points in the JIT flow so they get cascading delays in parts deliveries without having to have an entire plant on strike. loving that decades of toyota production system indoctrination have led the union to analyze bottlenecks and apply the kaizen principles to labor action. Overproduction of picket lines is waste!

vyelkin posted:The UAW strike is amazing and I really hope their rotating strike tactics complete with leaking false info works there are 3 ways i can think of for capital to fight this: 1.) capital flight to less-developed nations; china/BRICS are specifically developing swathes of the previously undeveloped world in order to prevent capital flight from themselves, which also has the effect of freezing up capital flights in general 2.) increase domestic repression; chattel slavery is theoretically and historically incompatible with industrial development, and whipping people harder will only deteriorate the modes of production further, leaving de-industrialized american capital at the mercy of industrial capital 3.) pad their supply chains back out to avoid bottlenecks; requires short-term sacrifices to profitability which is already a no-go but even if implemented the long term would involve distributing more material means of productions into the hands of increasingly proletarianized american labor it probably wont work forever, but it should have the effect of forcing capital to paint itself into tighter corners

fwiw 1.) and 2.) are definitely going to happen and they're definitely going to be effective at tamping down on whichever union(s) capital will be fighting at those times but it's only going to further exacerbate the very material conditions that are already rapidly accelerating labor militancy in the u.s. 3.) is more of a wildcard, and basically requires either complete subjugation of american capital to socialist central planning or for the us to have already gone through an intense round of turbofascist self-destruction

they’ve been moving production to the US south from the Midwest for generations, I’d imagine they’ll just keep doing that.

as long as there is no federal repeal of right to work laws, they'll keep moving things to the US south. those states will be too happy to help them.

fain rules. he knows how to work the media better than any other union leader alive. I saw a few random normie media outfits (Reuters!) covering the CEO pay thing because he had a coordinated media push on that topic ready to go as soon as the companies started to complain about the unions’ demands. this kinda stuff may seem distasteful or irrelevant but it really matters

more than just him, he has a staff that gives a poo poo, understands modern media tactics and has actual ideology guiding their decisions. I think UAW brought on some labor notes people after the new admin took over. Their communications (internally and externally) have improved dramatically. It's very inspiring. Every union member in us should come out of this strike thinking why can't we have that
