May 1, is #MayDay, aka #InternationalWorkersDay, a day celebrated by those who work for a living around the globe. However, the US does not officially recognize International Workers' Day. Why not?

"U.S. resistance to celebrate... International Workers' Day... stems from a resistance to emboldening worldwide working-class unity"

Keeping the working classes divided keeps the workers under the control of the corporate owners.

Another version of that #Meme that seems more accurate lately.

Shills for the rich corporate owners help to stoke divisiveness between members of the working classes (including both working-class White men and "others" such as immigrants, LGBTQ people, etc...).

That's why certain politicians and news orgs continually provoke fear and distrust of "others." It keeps the working classes from uniting and demanding better working conditions and higher pay.
