    That $50,000 bounty is likely a bigger payout than two years of wages as a burger flipper…

      And this is how the elite force us “lowers” to fight against each other instead of fighting them.

        It’s always been that way and will always be that way. The point isn’t to stop the infighting entirely, it’s to work in such ways as to reduce the impact it has on the goals we should be striving to achieve. Namely a better world for everyone.

            It will always be this way because people have opinions and perspectives. The two best ways to lessen infighting is by having a simple and common end goal. The second is a leader. Find both of these and I guarantee people will follow.

        Sure, but there’s a reason that scabs used to be beaten and shunned. Solidarity means everyone, and the consequences for breaking it need to be high or it’s too easy for the bosses to pick people off one by one by offering them bonuses for ratfucking their peers.

      It would be a shame if the person who sold out were publicly identified. Hopefully that will never ever happen.

        Yes, in all honesty, hopefully that will never happen.
        What, are you hoping for vigilante justice against a minimum wage worker?

          Did you forget that shame exists? Not all, hell not even most calls to name an offender are a call for violence, the vast majority are calls for accountability and potentially shame.

      I’m no expert, but wouldn’t the snitch have to pay taxes on the reward they receive? So they have earned the ire of a nation for a small stack of cash that they’ll likely blow within a year. Smort.
