Unionization will be an uphill battle… Wait… Not all non-managers public employees in the US are unionized??? Man, looking from the outside in, the US is ridiculous…

You can thank Rupert Murdoch, but yes, it is.
Workers who are heavily exploited, underpaid, and lose their job to this type of political nonsense are usually at best suspicious and at worst hostile to unions. They bathe in right-wing propaganda about “right to work” and greedy/corrupt unions just being another layer of bureaucracy that siphons off their wages.

Can confirm. Got a shitty job at Home de Pot in 2016. The longest, most in depth video they showed during the onboarding process was about how unions are evil and they just take dues without providing any kind of service.

But that’s a private sector job, here I was replying to someone talking about pubic servants not being unionized, which to me is completely ridiculous!

My point was that the anti-union propaganda is everywhere. And it’s pretty damn effective, considering the current state of things.
