Yeah quiet quitting is great and all but have you tried chaotic working?

Because then they can “legally” get thrown in prison for long enough to turn their family homeless who don’t have savings, which if they are striking for fair wages, is the case for many.
Legally that might be possible, but surely the solidarity between the bus drivers and the general population would be able to overcome that, wouldnt it?
No, that only works if the entire population overthrows the police force. Otherwise they will just rot in jail being abused by the class traitor psychos that are police.
A striking bus driver might not care, though it could be considered stealing and land him in legal trouble or be fired.
But it’s mainly the unions that coordinate these strikes. They cannot on a large scale organise illegal strikes without large repercussions.
In general, striking is well protected in the Netherlands. For example, companies are not allowed to hire strikebreakers or to fire people for striking. When a judge decides that free bus rides isn’t an allowed method of striking, these protections don’t apply either.
So its more the unions that need to be careful and since there (currently) is not really an alternative for bus drivers to organize themselves and start collective action, the bus drivers are restricted by what the union can legally do. Pretty similar situation in Germany.
I think strikes should break laws if the ones striling think it might help them.
And this is why Food Not Bombs refuses to ask for permits before feeding the hungry or holding demonstrations. If the government authorizes you to protest, the government holds authority over your protests.
In the Netherlands, a judge forbade bus drivers from striking like this. It is very effective.
Why should the bus drivers care about the judges ruling?

I don’t think you know how the Dutch legal system works.
Ignore all those speculating, this is not the US.

Because pigs categorize people into two categories:
Law abiding (does what they’re told) and Enemy (has no rights)
You’re thinking about the US. In my country, cops are usually well aware of people’s rights.
