Lots of legislative changes are enacted without mass mobilization, bomb attacks, 'threats to capital'

You can study the evolution of paternal and maternal leave in Sweden as a nice example. The Swedes didn't have to bomb any Ikeas - they just consistently voted for the right politicians.

You sound more concerned about the extremely racist history of the US than how many other nations were able to cement many a workers' right in their legislation through voting for the right policies

Not 'harder'. Smarter, better and more consistently.

And yeah the US is the only country that never meddled in or abused other countries for economic gain, or benefitted from slavery in any way, so that's the only one in the world where workers' rights really count. Right

Sure. Mass movement, politicians, pen, paper, law

Leave one of those out and it probably won't work

Well, the US only enacted it in 1937

So I only have basically all of Europe off the top of my head
