I forgot how bad it is.
I haven't read this in a while and I forgot how bad it is.
Because basically what they're saying is we want to be able to control everything that you do.
And this is our... They never say where they believe this right comes from.
They don't make an argument for naturalism where we are vested by the universal power of management to be able to do this.
They don't make any historical argument for it where, oh, this is, you know, because of the contracts that have been...
negotiated since the 50s something that's fairly standard and we think that we have the right to because of like long-standing precedent they just think that they should be able to control fucking everything yeah which is not um unsurprising for nestle yeah yeah
Well, and I think there's a lot of very, very abstract theoretical debate you run into if you're, like, instead of doing shit, you're, like, in theory circles about, like, oh, is, like, is capital its own autonomous entity, or is it, like, a thing that's, like, constantly in, like, relation to, like, the actions of workers?
And it's like, okay...
read something like this.
And it's like, oh no, they are so worried that they're going to have to react to what their workers are doing.
And they are already doing this, right?
This goes back to the whole, like, we're leaking to the media, we're going to sell the company.
Thing that they're doing where it's like, no, actually, these people are...
so not like easily but if you are organized at all it becomes so clear to them that they actually oh no wait hold on they're responding to us like they're not just purely the only thing that gets to like drive history forward and decide literally everything about your life the moment you like try to clove it away from them they see how fragile it is
And they're like, no, no, no, no, actually, we gotta spell out the fact that we gotta fucking dress you in whatever clothes we want you to wear.
