There's nothing stopping us from creating an engineers union. Each field should have their own organisation.

  Yes there is. I hate unions and I hate union work and I love doing my job.

      My class is the middle class and for generations we have profited from the extremely productive corporations here in Germany. Never in my life have I felt being "exploited" if anything these corporations have been excessively kind. I don't know or care which class I am betraying.

          Factory workers clearly do not see themselves as the same class as me. I do not see them as the same class as me. I have never felt exploited, but I HAVE enormously benefited from German corporations.

                Starvation has historically been used as one of the most effective ways to commit violence on populations and is often used by militaries. If you do not think that is violence, I'd love to hear what qualifies in your mind.

              > All political agendas are violence. if treated seriously, that just makes "violence" a meaningless term for start, there is a difference between threats of violence and actual violent acts for example

            Everybody does. Some however only object when the violence is extralegal.

      Then I will take that insult with a pride. My parents were also called such by Russian occupiers. Just do not be surprised that people run away from ideas (even reasonable ones) when associated with such beautiful terms as "class traitor".
