      The work culture at rich tech companies (people read something upsetting in the news and want to discuss and 'process' it on company time) is so alien from most people's experience of work that it makes me despair for ever finding common ground with the actual working class

      I remember an early Tech Solidarity meeting where a number of electricians joined us to talk about organizing. "What do you guys want?" they asked. The tech workers had no clear answer. "Well, a lot of us were getting electrocuted, so we started a union" the electricians said.

          High-end tech jobs are like college that never ends. People want their dean of students and codes of conduct and for everything to be ultimately fair and properly adjudicated by the administrators. It makes the workforce extraordinarily passive, as students ultimately are

          The tension between what US tech workplace activists say they want (diversity and inclusion) and their demands in practice (ideological conformity) is also a strong deterrent to meaningful collective action, something management at the big tech companies has noticed and embraced.

          what they want is to get screamingly angry about how their bosses are racist and their coworkers are bigots, and have there be absolutely no professional consequences to this whatsoever.

          I don’t understand how you’re distinguishing yourself from “the tech workers” here when you organized Tech Solidarity. Did you come to feel that the effort was misguided? What did you want the workers to want?

          Well, I'm not a tech worker in that I'm self-employed. I came to feel that the effort was hopeless and that forums for robust internal discussion and debate within the big tech companies in fact served as an effective > /dev/null for any meaningful attempts at collective action

          Tech workers are very brainwashed by their bosses. They believe the bosses are like their family, truly benevolent, and that they could talk the bosses out of doing anything bad. Plus, they'll start their own startup and be the boss someday: "temporarily embarrassed millionaires"

          One of thefirst electrician's union was founded in 1891 (IBEW), a huge difference in experience comparing to trying to unionize an industry in 2021.

          "We got electrocuted, so we started a union". Famous things that definitely happened.

          You’d have a very different experience if you had a more diverse crowd. Especially if you include tech workers in telecom and gaming.
