Oregon: 45,000 Fred Meyer employees on strike. “If you see that line at one of our 28 Fred Meyers in the Portland metro area, don’t cross it, just shop somewhere else.” (mastodon.world)

I would imagine that any destabilization in the operations of a capitalist system benefits the worker. Sure, Winco makes more money today, giving them a false impression of scale. And after FM falls in line, we go after Winco, giving them an even more pronounced loss of capital. Even if nothing happens, you've still added volatility to the system. That's better than nothing.
