While physical separation from the means of production is possible for some "laborers", I wonder if tech industries will fare any better than traditional on-site forms of labor once the smoke clears, and what that means for the idea that we live in something other/worse than capitalism.
All of us, especially those of us working with privilege from the safety of our homes, need to be fighting for the safety & finances of the workers out in the world - on the front lines - medical, food service, delivery, warehouse, transportation, childcare, janitorial, first responders... Their battles are happening every day & we need to listen to their demands & keep the pressure on.
Workers are filling trains in urban centers so that they can keep life moving. Class is apparent in every action and transaction. Class is going to be apparent in the illnesses and deaths of COVID-19.
