The Long Island Rail Road, North America’s largest commuter rail system, was shut down Saturday after unionized workers went on strike for the first time in three decades.
What happened in the comments here
I don’t know exactly how I’ll get back to my home in Manhattan tomorrow but I’ll figure it out. Best of luck to all the union folks.
Automate it and fire all these zeroes.
Leave the Reddit bullshit on Reddit.
Go eat a dick you fucking shit-heel.
Deep.
Unlike your thoughts
We should automate putting people like you into a meatgrinder.
Learn some working class solidarity you fuckin’ clown.
People who walk through a union line should be fuckin’ shot.
Working class solidarity would be these workers respecting the money that their working class peers (like myself) pay for this service. Although I do appreciate your uninformed reactionary bluster (we can use an idiot like you on the front lines), you would do better performing a cursory search for any combination of the words “lirr fraud corruption” before calling for my head. …Ya dildo.
You should look at the facts after you murder me. That’s usually how it goes, no? https://duckduckgo.com/?q=lirr+corruption&ia=web https://www.google.com/search?q=lirr+corruption
Yeah, it’s a real rainbow coalition over there.
Wow, from 0 to violence in no time.
Why do you only think it is violence when it is physical?
Omg, leftists are actually more annoying than maga…
Oh so the answer is just that you’re stupid. Got it. Thanks.
The working class has been suffering this weight since time immemorial.
This isn’t coming from no where. Useless men like you having been saying insipid, privileged shit like this for millennia.
Eat a dick, class traitors deserve it.
And if you think that you’re slick you’ll catch a brick… https://longisland.news12.com/2025/10/23/dozens-of-lirr-workers-accused-in-culture-of-fraud-time-theft-scheme/5HgS3r97t1s1aTKISq6dXx
Still trying to swallow this dick. Turns out I’m in to it.
Dude, NYC: I’m from here. I live here. If you can willfully ignore the fact that my travel money (a significant part of my wage THAT IS TIED TO MY SALARY) you probably should consider listening. Do I hate workers? No. Do I have an issue with people who have repeatedly, directly fucked with my salary and my income due to fraud? YES.
Do you think I’m siding with the MTA? I’m on Lemmy, b. Give me some credit. This isn’t Reagan and the airlines. These guys have ripped off their neighbors. To wrangle with your boss for your travel,then lose 30 percent of it out of nowhere, then to open the paper to see that they have been falsifying time, that will get on your tits. It is personal. We’re your fucking neighbors.
