30% of India’s labor is unionized.

90% of the unionized labor joined the strike.

ALL THIS INFORMATION IS IN THE LINKS I PROVIDED.

yes, close to 300,000,000 workers ―in a country of +1 BILLION― did not show up to work in India on the 12th of February of 2026.

THAT’S WHY IT IS HISTORIC AND NEWS WORTHY.

can i just say something about #Colbert?

whomever negotiated his #CBS #labor & production contracts are geniuses.

have y’all noticed how, notwithstanding everything, they can't get rid of him outright?

Colbert must have nuclear options in his & his workers contracts that exponentially raise the costs of CBS getting rid of them under any circumstances.

this is only possible with the backing of labor #unions. Hollywood proves #unionization is the only path to wealth for the working classes.

Excellent news!

#Unions are best organization to take on the billionaires.

The first industrial revolution gave birth to movements that secured labor laws and protections: five-day work week, social security, abolition of child labor - these rights were not freely given. They were fought for and won by workers who organized, went on strike, marched, and refused to accept the way things were. The #Ai revolution is compressing economic disruption into a fraction of time.
