All in the same vein as the other authoritarian shit being put up by governments worldwide.
The jig’s up. Our owners are tired of playing pretend, and the veneer has come off the whole thing. No more pretending that hard work will get you somewhere. No more “if you’re with us, you can rise in the ranks”. Just plain ol’ feudalism, as if it had never left.
Seems like it’s almost time for Arab Spring 2.0: Global Spring.
the army helping labour during a crisis is acceptable.
need man power to quickly build up a supply of gas masks during a pandemic? make sense.
the army being used to literally go to war with workers for their rights? fuck no.
This is what the military is for! Hooyah!
I suppose the RNZN need something to do with half their ships (4) laid up. (They have 8 ships total.)
Just to clarify: the military will only be enabled to replace striking civilians employed by the defence force. Im still against this, but it seems like a fair few people think they will be replacing striking civilians nationwide. This is not the case.
