When two giants merge, workers lose bargaining power and audiences lose diverse stories. Consolidation is great for CEOs, but not for the people who make or watch the shows.

#UnionsForAll #StopTheMerger
Meme with four panels showing increasingly illuminated brain images. Panel 1 text: “Netflix and Warner Bros. are merging. Interesting.” Panel 2 text: “Wait… fewer studios means fewer shows get made.” Panel 3 text: “Crap, that leads to less creative and diverse content.” Panel 4 text: “Mega-mergers kill jobs and gut bargaining power for workers.” Each panel is paired with an image of a progressively more activated human brain.

The real golden ticket? Understanding your rights and enforcing them. 📘✨

Image shows a still from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory of a smiling young boy holding a glowing paper, but the paper has been edited to look like a stack of documents labeled “Collective Bargaining Agreement 2024–2026.” Above the image is the text: “When you find the contract language that shuts down management’s nonsense.” The boy looks excited as he reads the contract.

We're so over corporations that back the MAGA regime's policies, cave to anti-DEI pressure, let ICE terrorize our communities, and chase tax breaks while people go hungry. That's why you won't find us shopping at Target, HomeDepot, or Amazon.🚫🚫🚫 #WeAintBuyingIt!

The holidays are supposed to be about family, gratitude and community... NOT about funding companies that harm ours. We're saying NO to Target, Home Depot, and Amazon for funding and/or caving to the MAGA regime's hateful policies. #WeAintBuyingIt 🚫🚫🚫

Union dues fuel member support, boss fights, contract enforcement, legal protection, organizing programs, and the ability to hold employers accountable. When we all contribute, we all get stronger—and we win more together than we ever could alone.

#UnionsForAll #SolidaritySeason
Meme shows a photo of Popeye wearing purple clothes and a shirt that says "Labor Power" and has a purple fist. Popeye is holding a can of spinach that is open and is launching it towards his mouth.

They want to make an example of David Huerta to scare organizers, immigrants, workers, and politicians into silence. But the example he sets is courage – and we stand united in solidarity for #justicefordavid

We're rejecting corporations that fuel this administration, crumble under anti-DEI demands, enable ICE's cruelty, and chase tax breaks while communities struggle. This Black Friday through Cyber Monday, remember our dollars are our voice.

If breaking the law is your "standard practice," that’s exactly why workers need unions.
