A Chinese factory employee set fire to a textile plant in China’s southwestern Sichuan province in his frustration over unpaid wages of just 800 yuan (or US$111), according to videos posted on social media and eyewitness accounts shared with Radio Free Asia.
This is how you do it!
“just 800 yuan (or US$111)”
“just”
Fuck man, I’d go ballistic over $111 of unpaid wages, and that’s probably a bigger chunk of that employee’s monthly wages than mine.
My first reaction was “That’s not very much - guess they should have paid him!”

My dear overworked and underpaid fellow Americans please take notes…
Should have given him his $111
Should have just given the man his stapler.
800 yuan to this person could be equivalent to the entire factory for the company

Fight back!
Idk. On one hand I really appreciate the energy but on the other hand this is kind of fucked up for everyone else that works there, and I assume there were people inside when he did this. Like what are all his coworkers going to do for work now that the factory is burned down? I know that’s part of why capitalism sucks but it’s not like they can do anything about it as individuals.

They will not probably see the sun for the rest of life.
Fuck yeah. Ask them if it was worth it now. You were going to live as a wage slave regardless.
The Pingshan county police confirmed an incident of arson and said the arsonist had been detained at the scene of the fire.
A better way to do it is to wait a couple of weeks, burn the place down so it looked like a naturally occurring fire, and not get caught.
