So, this hasn’t crossed my dash yet. (Not blaming anyone, there is soooo much going on in the world and I’d also missed it in the noise).

There is currently a strike at Frito-Lay. in Topeka. These workers are striking because:

They were being forced to work 84 hour weeks. The company’s best offer so far is a 60 hour cap. This is shit we fought for a century ago, people.

Their generous offer also includes a whole 4 percent wage increase…over the next 2 years. I’m not sure what COL is in Topeka, but… Well, it’s better than the entire 77 cents they’ve apparently gotten in the last decade.

There’s also a report that a worker literally collapsed and dropped dead on the line and the foreman’s response was to make them move the body out of the way and put in a replacement. (However, this is unconfirmed and, of course, the company denies it).

There have been multiple OSHA violations at this plant over the last few years, including a forklift accident that’s under investigation.

They’ve now been striking since July 5 but, of course, it only hit the national media yesterday.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2021/07/14/frito-lay-strike-forced-overtime/

So, why am I signal boosting this?

Because Frito-Lay is refusing to budge. They are attempting to make the excuse that union leadership agreed to the 60 hour work week and crappy pay cut…when union leadership only agreed to put it to a vote.

And this means that we need to put the thumbscrews on them. Remember, this is about 19th century style working conditions.

So, I’m calling on my followers to boycott Frito Lay’s until the strike is involved.

Frito-Lay owns:

Lay’s

Doritos (Sorry. I really am. I KNOW there’s no good alternative to Doritos, although Zapp’s are good if you can find them).

Fritos

Tostitos

Cheetos

Ruffles

Sun Chips

Baken-ets

Chester’s

Cracker Jack

Islen plantain chips

Funyuns

Grandma’s (the cookies)

Matador Meat Snacks

Maui style potato chips

Miss Vickie’s

Munchies

Munchos

Rolled Gold

Sabritones

Santitas

Simply

Smartfood

Stacys

The Walking Taco

NatuChips

PopCorners (this one wasn’t on their website, but was bought by Pepsi’s in 2019 with the intent of adding it. So best avoided just in case).

Yes, this really is more than half of the snack aisle. Suggested alternatives:

Kettle Brand Chips

Zapp’s (If you can find them. My supermarket had them once and not since, so I’m guessing the culinary cowards in this neighborhood were afraid of “Voodoo” flavored chips).

Pringles

On the Border for salsa.

Wise Cheez Doodles

Bugles

Utz

Store own brand alternatives, if your store has ones that are any good.

Cheez-its

Check before you buy and let’s tell these people they don’t get to treat workers like that.

as much as i am definitely anti-paywall and i wholeheartedly think newspapers specifically have a duty to not lock news behind a paywall, i think it’s important to keep in mind that the reason right-wing shit never has paywalls is because they’re being given a blank cheque by incredibly wealthy people who are relying on the continued existence of the infinite conservative propaganda machine. anybody not part of that machine instead has to ask its audience to help fund the news. it’s not enough to just demand that news sites remove paywalls (though they should), we also have to ask why they’re struggling to remain afloat while alt-right news sites rake in millions because they can afford to just throw out all the horseshit they can because they’re literally never in danger of shutting down or going bankrupt. like yeah sure the paywalls but this cannot be allowed just like in general we cannot seriously be doing this

the phrase “tolerant left” pisses me off because technically i’m left but i’m NOT tolerant. if you say dumb shit i’m not gonna be like “uwu you’re entitled to your opinion, peace is the best option” i’m fuckimg DESTROYING you. think before you say private healthcare has good incentives

“so much for the tolerant left” not everyone is a pussy. some of us want to rob you

tolerance is bearing pain on purpose

ain’t a lot worth that
