For example nurses are not legally allowed to strike which is why their working conditions are completely hosed and why something like 30-35% of them currently work outside of their profession.
It's been decided that we're allowed to exploit them.

Isn't it like in Norway where they technically can have a limited strike until the government steps in and sends it to a National Wage Board (Lønnsnemnd) where they always favour the employer? Especially when the employer is the government. At least that's what happens every time nurses or teachers try to go on strike here

Yeah, that's more or less how it works in Denmark at least, and it sucked last time they did the limited strikes.

I really wish the unions for samfundskritiske jobs would just ally with the trash collectors, so the actual work stoppage was in trash collection, but paid for by the nurses. Trash collection strikes kick are awesome.

I agree - we should just start to say "gently caress the lønnsnemd" and keep on striking. It's useless when it always favours the employers no matter how unreasonable their offering is

We're probably getting another conservative government here next year, and depending on how fast they're loving up poo poo this time I wouldn't rule out a general strike in the next decade

I wouldn't bet on it either though

The Institute for Human Rights released a new report detailing immigrant experiences with racism in Denmark and it's even worse than one would expect. Numbers are from the past year.

https://menneskeret.dk/udgivelser/oplevet-etnisk-diskrimination-danmark

quote:

Key figures from the report:
  • 84% of ethnic minority persons report that they've experienced discrimination or prejudice due to their ethnic background.
  • 65% report that they've experienced illegal discrimination due to their ethnic background.
  • 48% of those who've sent an application report that they've experienced having it rejected based on their ethnic background, particularly as it pertains to jobs, training, homes and banking.
  • 49% report that they've received worse service due to their ethnic background, particularly as it pertains to shopping, dining, healthcare and education.
  • 28% report that they've been denied entry to places otherwise open to the public due to their ethnic background, particularly as it pertains to nightlife.
  • 29% report that they've been stopped by police without any apparent cause other than their ethnic background.
  • 12% report that they've been subjected to violence or threats due to their ethnic background. Victims of violence report that bystanders rarely intervene.
  • 11% of victims of discrimination report that they've lodged a complaint afterwards, particularly because many don't believe it will make a difference.
  • 55% report that they've altered their conduct in public due to their ethnic background. Many adapt how they walk, speak or appear, or refrain from speaking their family's native language in public. Some report that they've changed their names or refrain from wearing religious symbols.
  • 38% report to some, high or very high degree that they've considered leaving Denmark due to their experiences with discrimination or prejudice.

DR is trying to delegitimize a professor of Middle Eastern studies under the guise of "editorial responsibility", obviously their coverage isn't sufficiently slanted in favor of Israel.

The darkly hilarious thing is that hospitals during strikes operates at the level it does during the summer vacation. So it's a danger to health and safety when people are striking but not when they're on vacation.

Ticketmaster can go gently caress a duck. First, they removed physical ticket sales, then they allowed one individual to buy 8(!!!) tickets, so naturally Blocket is plastered with Springsteen tickets for 2x or 3x the original price.

They have automatically scaled pricing based on website demand before, so if scalpers drive up the rush around ticket releases that directly benefits them.

I mean yeah, I know they're Nazis and always have been. I just also know that they've been trying to rehabilitate their image and claiming (obviously falsely) to have zero tolerance for this stuff in the party.

In other words: I knew he was a Nazi, I just didn't expect him to be quite so obvious about it (not that it wasn't obvious to anyone with two brain cells already, but you know what I mean).

Guess it's time to start illegally going on strike.
