Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

This week, the 4,700 Amazon workers who work at the sprawling RDU1 Fulfillment Center in Garner, North Carolina, will decide whether to unionize. For weeks, CAUSE members have had a tent set up outside of the warehouse to talk to workers, hand out food, and prepare for their election.

Though several other warehouses and 20 contracted Amazon driver companies (Delivery Service Partners, or DSPs) are technically unionized via a 2023 NLRB ruling called Cemex, only one warehouse has won a union through election so far — JFK8, the Fulfillment Center on Staten Island, in 2022. RDU1 would be the second.
