Quit this bullshit. A lot of tech workers working remotely are contractors, precarious workers. Content moderators, data labelers, and the likes are not paid 6 figures and they are not privileged. Most of the workforce of these companies are not white, rich dudebros. Stuff like this adds insult to injury.
Is it illegal though? Perhaps start there, with worker protection law. Everyone is happy to help the dudebros exploit the working class as long as line goes up.
Edit: Lol, 1s, immediate downvote. If only you were as assiduously fighting the exploitation…
I’m a union organizer in tech. My downvote was the 8th, not the 1st. I was busy doing a call with striking riders in Greece. Keep up the good work, scab.
I’m genuinely unsure they’re a scab, I think they’re saying that we cannot expect these parasitic companies to have the workers best interests at heart, and as such strong workers rights should be enshrined in law and enforced.
I could be misunderstanding them though of course.
Pitting different types of workers against each other automatically promotes you to a scab. Purism and sectarianism are much more harmful to labor organizing than union busting.
Good on you, give them hell and good luck with the cheeto in chief. If you need to run, you’ll always have a home this side of the ocean.
Regarding the “different types of workers”, a CEO is still a worker. Smart people know the difference between those that take advantage of legislation vs those who suffer from it. This type of absolute dogmatic purism is what got your laws to be shit in the first place.

Shit like this is why they called you a scab. Ceos aren’t workers, they’re part of the capital class. Thinking of ceos as workers shows me you haven’t thought through your positions past a surface level.

You mean like ceos and the rest of the capital class? And I’m guessing you consider yourself one of the “smart ones” LOL

No, capital owning politicians is what made our laws to be this shit.
Bruh, I’ve worked for small companies most of my adult life. Get the fuck out of here with that bullshit. Even ceos of the small companies I’ve worked for are well above the standard worker in pay and monetary class.
The only place you have a point is on very small businesses that are basically not even incorporated (like my business before it went under). Even the “mom and pop” family taco joint I worked for as a young adult had that problem.
Edit:
Ah, and get easily triggered. There’s very little separating your reply from an ape flinging shit.
Oh sorry, I didn’t realize I was speaking with a low rent troll. Carry on.
Now start pulling the rope, who gives mandate to the CEO? Who controls the mandate? Do they also influence legislation?
Believing the CEOs are the problem and not just another abstraction layer so the real responsibility doesn’t fall squarely on the neo nobility is the mark of the failure of the left. It’s like herding sheep and hearing the bleating hatred for the Shepherd dog.
I think that exactly what they are saying, but it misses the whole point. Yes, either protections would be great to prevent against this and no it’s not illegal, but it’s heinous and TikTok should be lambasted. The poster is essentially victim blaming because of their assumed jobs, pay, and because their misfortune is not illegal. It’s just a really bad take, even if it’s not technically wrong.

Precisely this.
