The #Trump Administration bars
#Harvard #University from enrolling #foreign #students.

It is time to #organize and #collectively say, "Oh, Hell No!" to #AgentOrange & the #idiots at #DHS.

→ How Far Can “Buy Canadian” Really Go?

“What #sacrifices are we willing to make to support our #values? How can we maintain long-term pressure without burning out or reverting to old #shopping habits and items? How do we do this without blaming those who can’t #participate?

Perhaps most importantly, how can we #collectively #build a more self-reliant and #resilient #economy that aligns with our principles and stands strong against external #threats?”

#Canadian

A few experiences we are having #Collectively that leave people vulnerable to identity crisis:

#Grief and loss of loved ones

#Austerity that demands more exertion for less compensation. The exertion is not our identity, but it gets in the way; the austerity invites shame and confusion.

#Performance - so many iterations of this but it still feels very #Collective. The pressure is imposed.

The #national conversation about #Identity and #Crisis is leaving our these pieces. We're #Disregulated

#TheStaff at #BT / #BTMobile / #EE are #Constrained by #TheSystems "they/them" have to #WorkWith; #Several of #TheStaff have been #ExceptionallyWellInformed and #Helpful, which is to #TheirCredit... #Collectively

And, #IT's also #WHY, "they/them" #StillRetain #SomeOfMyCustom and #Practice...

Why #Israeli #Soldiers #Rape, #Torture, and #Massacre.

Instilling #fear in the #citizens of #Gaza is not a #sideeffect of the #IDF's #brutal #violations of #humanrights. It is their #strategy. "these #practices are intended to #punish #Palestinians for #resisting #occupation and seek to #destroy them #individually and #collectively."

National Labor Relations Act

FINDINGS AND POLICIES

Section 1.[§151.] The denial by some employers of the right of employees to organize
and the refusal by some employers to accept the procedure of collective bargaining
lead to strikes and other forms of industrial strife or unrest,
which have the intent or the necessary effect of burdening or obstructing commerce by

(a) impairing the efficiency, safety, or operation of the instrumentalities of commerce;

(b) occurring in the current of commerce;

(c) materially affecting, restraining, or controlling the flow of raw materials or manufactured or processed goods from or into the channels of commerce, or the prices of such materials or goods in commerce;

or (d) causing diminution of employment and wages in such volume as substantially to impair or disrupt the market for goods flowing from or into the channels of commerce.

The 🔸#inequality of bargaining #power 🔸between
🔹employees who do not possess full freedom of association or actual liberty of contract
🔹and employers who are organized in the corporate or other forms of ownership association
💥substantially burdens and affects the flow of commerce,
💥and tends to aggravate recurrent business #depressions, by depressing wage rates and the purchasing power of wage earners in industry
and by preventing the stabilization of competitive wage rates and working conditions within and between industries.

Experience has proved that ♦️protection by law of the right of employees to #organize and #bargain #collectively
♦️safeguards commerce from injury, impairment, or interruption, and promotes the flow of commerce by removing certain recognized sources of industrial strife and unrest,
⭐️by encouraging practices fundamental to the friendly adjustment of industrial disputes arising out of differences as to wages, hours, or other working conditions,
⭐️and by restoring equality of bargaining power between employers and employees.

Experience has further demonstrated that certain practices by some labor organizations, their officers, and members
have the intent or the necessary effect of burdening or obstructing commerce
by preventing the free flow of goods in such commerce through strikes and other forms of industrial unrest or through concerted activities which impair the interest of the public in the free flow of such commerce.

The elimination of such practices is a necessary condition to the assurance of the rights herein guaranteed

✅ It is declared to be the policy of the United States to eliminate the causes of certain substantial obstructions to the free flow of commerce
and to mitigate and eliminate these obstructions when they have occurred
by encouraging the practice and procedure of #collective #bargaining
and by protecting the exercise by workers of 🌟full freedom of association,🌟 self- organization, and 🌟designation of representatives of their own choosing, for the purpose of negotiating the terms and conditions of their employment or other mutual aid or protection

#Ideological arguments that support #capitalism or #communism being applied across the entire economy do not make sense. Each #sector should be assessed to decide whether that it should be owned #publicly, #collectively, or #privately. Watch now: https://buff.ly/4dyujI5

@SusanHR I know my vacation $ alone won’t make a difference to #DeSantis or #Disney but, it’s money someplace else WILL get.
As #consumers we wield considerable power if we do it #collectively. DeSantis’ followers will jump ship in a heartbeat if his bullsh*t policies start hurting their pocketbook. Getting people to act together, however - that’s a tough one.

In the #2022 #midterms, the 100 #largest #donors #collectively #spent #60percent more than every #smalldonor in the United States combined, according to a #BrennanCenter analysis of #publicly #available #data. (Small donors are those who give $200 or less.) The #wealthy have always #wielded #disproportionate #power over #American #government. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/4-takeaways-about-money-midterms

@eleventyone salut! Thanks for the follow, and to all my new #followers and #boosters.

We can only be the change we want to see by active #collectively and #organizing #politically. I'm particularly thinking of #CanadianPolitics and #OnPoli, but the message is the same across the world.

Continuous #traditions: this low-roofed, thatched, stone-built hut was built for the guard who watched against theft of the esparto grasses #collectively grown & harvested by local #communities - mostly for basketry - on hill slopes north of Nerja in southern Spain. It’s a material expression of rights of #common that can persist for centuries, even millennia.
