Anarcho-Syndicalism and expropriating capital conglomerates

[La Tristesse Durera]

Hello! I have inquiry for anyone willing to answer.

How would an anarcho-syndicalist community go about expropriating and nationalizing say a Coca Cola facility in their jurisdiction wherein it is run and managed by workers, with stipends and dividends distributed in symmetry, with no capital elite collecting an overabundance of product, etc. Basically that of anarcho-syndicalist orthodoxy.

Moreover, would it be possible to do the said expropriations/nationalization without running into external litigation, and would the jurisprudence of the respected state (that of which is working as a bastion of the Coca Cola industry) be relevant to local (anarcho-syndicalist) "laws". - Would their attempts at litigation be ultimately futile in our jurisdiction? Furthermore, how could you evade compulsory emoluments to company headquarters/ product proprietors if they demanded appropriation of sorts...

Thanks!

Wouldn't endorsing the product be substantive enough? Rather than having to stipend the corporation since they hold the name and ingredients, et cetera?

I think unless there was a general strike and a full-scale revolution the state would probably go in with its armed thugs and return the factory to its 'owners'.

But if the workers all got together, pooled their resources, quit their jobs(not a strike but actually quitting), and then bought a factory together with a stipulation in the contract that it is worker-owned so you can't just quit your job and still keep your share or sell your share to a non-worker then that could possibly work.

Obviously a great deal depends on which state you have to deal with.

Something akin to what you are describing has happened in Argentina, though not to any CocaCola plants. When owners tried to get their factories back, the cops have generally sided with the workers.

And some quasi-socialist states have tried something similar. India at one time nationalized CocaColas operations and, after failing to get the formula for Coke, came out with their own state-cola called CampaCola.

Very insightful, especially your anecdotal knowledge, lefty. Thanks!
