       I'm fuming reading this article about how the #WikimediaFoundation just fired Brooke Vibber and the entire Community Tech team. It sure looks an awful lot like illegal #UnionBusting. 😡https://medium.com/@jakeorlowitz/wikipedia-is-doing-the-capitalist-thing-56a393232943If you are a #Wikipedia editor, please join me in showing your solidarity with #WikiWorkersUnited by signing the petition:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Workers_United_solidarityIf you are not, you can still help. Please share widely about this. The article above suggests emailing the WMF board. Don't donate to WMF until this is resolved, they have a war chest already. I want us to embarrass WMF until they cave and reverse course. I want them to offer these workers their jobs back, stop union busting, and put it in their damn charter they won't try this crap again. I want them to realize without their community, they are nothing. We can strike. We can fork all of #Wikimedia if it comes to it. ✊#Labor #Unions #DirectAction

       So I just learned there are actually two petitions. I would encourage people with Wikipedia/Wikimedia accounts to sign both.https://aus.social/@claudinec/116647016400544254

       @pluralistic Would you be able to help get the word out about this? I think if we can get enough public pressure on WMF we may be able to get them to change course. If you already did, thank you! 🙏
