Carry On

Hey so just so everyone knows, the union that’s helping the Amazon workers in Alabama organize has explicitly NOT called for a boycott and has no involvement with the posts going around promoting one. 
This boycott was something put together by people who don’t at all work at Amazon and has the potential to create more negative effects for the workers than positive. 

Organizing a union is very serious business, and we can’t take a chance that might fuck up the work actual Amazon employees are doing to better their lives for the sake of a retweet, you know? 


As they say, “Don’t do for the workers what they can do for themselves.” We do not help form unions by putting things like this together without communication and creating dynamics for the workers that they never intended to exist - we help workers by asking directly what they need and helping them with it. 


This is not that.
