I used to be a wobbly. Had to resign after my previous manager was fired and I was left with a choice. Step up or we bring in someone else. I knew that if I stepped up I could use my position to advocate for my employees and did so all the way up to me being let go because I wouldn't stop fighting for them even after my boss would try and get me to fall in line. I hated that I needed to quit the wobblies to do so, but honestly I believe firmly I did more for my people doing that then being in the wobblies.

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.
