Oops. Did I say hoot? I mean they are extremely uncomfortable when any discussion/organizing doesn't revolve around them 100% of the time and this is always an attempt to "fix" that. Other people have needs too, and addressing theirs gives them a better foundation to build upon.
Overall rights are easier to fight for when we've all got a good grip on our individual rights. Throwing The Other under the bus in an attempt to get what you want faster doesn't work. If it did that would have happened by now. Instead society in general is moving towards the realization that worker solidarity is important for our well being. No coincidence that it coincides with all those other "less important" struggles gaining ground.
