Syndicalist
A syndicalist is an individual who supports syndicalism, a radical economic and political philosophy that advocates for workers to seize control of industries through trade unions and direct action. This approach often rejects traditional political parties and state intervention, emphasizing grassroots organizing and strikes, and it has influenced modern labor rights movements from the Occupy protests to contemporary union reforms.
