I think it's pure #classism when a majority of longtime #Fediverse users from #academia blame #artist|s and #sexworker|s for trying to generate #income by doing #promotion in the Fediverse.

What else are #academic|s doing than to promote themselves when they expose their #skills & #knowledge in the Fediverse?

I consider it #bigotry on #speed to blame #tradies, #artists & #sexworkers for trying to generate #income here.

#Union|s & #Cooperative|s have historically been intertwined, but those times are long over, at least in #FRG. Part of the reason is that the structure of unions in #FRG is very different from the rest of the globe. So when it comes to #BasicIncomeGrant and #CooperativeEconomy, I totally gave up on unions a long time ago. You won't see me as a member of a union.

Also, the political spectrum is different in #Europe & #US.

E.g. #Obama is a #rightwing #SocialDemocrat by our standards. 🌺
