By and large, tech workers specifically are some of the least amenable to class consciousness I have ever seen
This thread is about a bunch of them getting fired from great jobs over anti-imperialism. That’s a lot more of a commitment than most people have made (probably even most here).
I will never forgive them for just rolling over.
This just isn’t accurate. Tons of people insisted on keeping WFH, changed jobs over it, turned down higher pay to keep it, etc., and the companies that really pushed people back to the office had to use all sorts of carrots and sticks to make it happen.
the ones doing the sit-in are a fraction of a fraction.
It’s that way in most industries. Leftists, especially ones willing to get fired over anti-imperialism, are rare everywhere in the U.S.
I broadly agree there’s less potential for radicalization in the tech sector compared to many industries, it just might not be as comparatively bad as it looks, because it’s not great most places.
they’ve been pushing RTO, and now (as of early last year at the very latest) they have been requiring full time in-office participation again
This is what I’m saying – people didn’t roll over, they had to be forced back to the office. You still have people clinging to whatever WFH time they have left.
