Does anyone else have any like minded comrades that have recently "Disappeared"?
I have, oops, had 4 like minded comrades at work. Now there's 2 of us.
We are familiar with at least the Manifesto and 2 of us have survived real, live revolutions in other countries. I am the least experienced and knowledgeable.
The two of us that have been in revolutions "disappeared". The most recent having suddenly disappeared without a trace or word.
About a month ago. A short while before I stopped posting here for a while.
Comrade A, an ex-soviet citizen was fired from the job without good cause shortly after new management took over several years ago. He or She is still trying to sue.
This isn't exactly disappearing, just evil management practices tolerated by a then weak and ineffective Union.
I was apparently next in line, but survived a setup by my manager designed to provoke, disgrace and fire me.
It's been Cat and Mouse for a few years now. What Great Fun... not.
A couple of years later, we hired 2 more comrades, C and D both survivors of revolutions elsewhere.
Comrade C was fired / forced to quit 3 months ago over something that could have easily been contested. Not a word since.
Comrade D suddenly disappeared. Not a trace. Didn't show up for work one day, left personal belongings behind, friends and family have heard nothing.
Comrade E, the union steward has been mostly left alone.
Other fellow workers have been fired as well but were anti-Marxist in nature and I'm not including them as comrades. Their belief in The American Way didn't help them in the end.
All of us have had bad relations with Management. "Bad relations" means that we are not sellouts or suck-ups who are actively encouraged and rewarded.
My observation is that our politically-connected management is becoming not exactly more bold, but perhaps more deadly?
They were always pretty abusive but now people completely disappear. Perhaps Comrade A is being too much bother and it's more efficient to "disappear" someone?
Uh-Oh.
Never trust managers with fake last names...
