What a horrible take.

The janitor deserves to be paid well, work in safe conditions, and have stable hours. They may not provide “the majority of the value” but without them work would grind to a halt.

Same applies to every other job. If it needs to be done, then it should be treated with respect and dignity.

I agree that everyone deserves to be paid according to their contribution, and have their employer follow all relevant laws. I am not aware of anyone being murdered, enslaved, or even tortured by the Foundation. This group seems to be trying to ‘cash in’ on Wikipedia’s AI windfall, and I think that will cause long-term damage to the organization.

So, what you’re saying is you believe the bar for starting a union is being murdered, tortured, or enslaved?

Why?

Why would the bar not be: we feel our contributions are undervalued. Because that’s what you’re calling a “cash in” attempt.

If they made the company work up to this point, and the company got a windfall because of its position, why do they not deserve a piece of that windfall?

No, I’m not saying that, and if I were, I’d clearly state it.

Then why bring that up, if it’s not relevant to the topic?
