Maybe make better worker rights (or any at all) part of your demands

You can demand that and you should, but the reality right now is those workers do not have the right to take a day off of work to protest.

And there is a disturbing thread I have seen lately on Lemmy where people suggest those workers should lose their job to protest because they have to suffer if they want to end their suffering apparently.
