- denton-scratch 5y agoThe IWW (The "Wobblies") are an anarchist trades-union movement. I mean left-anarchist - not right-wing libertarian. In my experience, wobblies are not consistent with any kind of "conservative" label. The IWW is pretty much a minority movement, and nobody's going to join it if they have conservative leanings. The IWW doesn't have a problem with entryists.
