Well that’s kinda ridiculous
Lol. Good luck finding a lawyer to that that case. I’m with the mods but I assume this a joke that got out of hand.
Yeah, this seems very unlikely to go anywhere other than in gaining media attention (which is a fair aim to have at this point).
I don’t think the point to to actually get paid. I think the idea is, as you said, media attention, as well as investor attention. Who’s going to want to invest in a company that’s trying to unionize?
I thought unionize meant un-ion-izing things, like ions from molecules and metals.
maybe they should start a lemmy community to talk about it… like !workreform@lemmy.world
I’m not seeing any serious suggestions of that there. Looks more like hypothetical talk.
I actually had a similar thought to that yesterday. Could moderators be classified as employees for the work they do?
I think you would have a massive uphill struggle to argue Reddit’s moderators are employees in court. Without that no back pay and no union.
Excellent. Organising at grassroots will allow us to SMASH the rotten edifice of reddit!!
