Comment on Shawn Fain, president of the UAW: ‘Workers realized they’ve been getting screwed for decades’
ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 months agoI graduated. I tried bringing this up, but no one seems to care that they shaft us. The university puts out a ton of propaganda about how people will be punished for strike activities, and it scares the international students into being scabs because they’re scared they’ll lose their visas.

Yeah, that’s a shitty situation all around. Just from what you’ve said, I blame the UAW about as much as the international students- it’d be great if the solidarity was there, but it’s natural that their priorities are elsewhere. The school is the real problem, but I definitely get how it’s hard to think so fondly of UAW after that experience.
