There's a quote I can't seem to find about unions being the compromise because the alternative is showing up at the factory owner's house.

The Battle of the Overpass wasn't that long ago.

Found the one I was thinking of:

Someone should probably tell the rich that workers banding together to present formal address of grievances is the alternative we worked out a long time ago to breaking down the factory owner's front door and beating him to death in front of his family? I feel like they forgot.

It was on Twitter, no idea the origin.

Yeah but now they have tools like TikTok to cook our brains and microwave cannon to cook protesting bodies.
