    people are definitely protesting over mandates globally, the labor disputes are largely to do with worsening conditions around changes implemented or policies inadequately implemented since the pandemic started

      ffs we already addressed this. There are people protesting yes. But protest =/= strike.

      There are hundreds of thousands of people striking right now for reasons that are specific and have zero relation to vaccine mandates.

      You are trying to use their struggle to push some anti vaxx shit and you're acting super sus about it.

          No you're cherry picking. The overwhelming majority of strikes have nothing to do with vaccines. Why is this the hill you are willing to die on?

            they're all in the same cauldron of conditions, which includes increased pressure on the workers by governments & the managers & owners & bosses through inconsistent and/or inadequately applied policies

                yes, the material conditions are how much workers will put up with before resigning or protesting or going on wildcat strikes without union approval/protection

                  and you're focusing on a tiny few workers and not the real issue. Which is wages and safety measures. You're siding with anti-vaxxers to... what exactly?
