    Unions aren’t community.

    They’re a necessary defence mechanism against capitalism.

      Humour is a defence mechanism. Altruism is a defence mechanism. And with those two, camaraderie is a given.

      Also it would be a sorry state of affairs if workers under capitalism had their defence mechanisms, but not canalisation workers shovelling literal shit.
