Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

There are two ways to solve for this: private ownership by a dedicated individual, and worker cooperative ownership with a strong culture.

Glad you brought up worker cooperatives. I have watched a few Richard Wolff videos and they sound awesome to me.

There's also this guy, who looks legit on paper, but I can't figure out if he really is legit or not. I hope he is...

I am Lemmy’s token syndicalist lol. I love democracy so much I think we should have it at work too.

I'm sold, where do I sign up?

Probably a union hall. Maybe try the Wobblies. Definitely join me in propagandizing. But yeah organize in some way, you can probably find the hand of syndicalists somewhere in your local leftism scene, we’re notorious for being well organized as we’re where anarchism meets “ok but like we need a plan and some clear goals”.
