Comment on The Big 3 automakers now have record offers on the table. UAW says they can do more
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 1 year agoVery pro-union but you have no clue how the system works. I’ll leave you with this to educate you on why shareholder value is important. Most my family is retired uaw and I like you they know their pension plan and medical plans are funded from shareholder value.
So instead of being an edge lord. Learn how the system works. Union families don’t find you wishing them harm so funny.

??? Dude I don’t know what to tell you? When people say think of the shareholders they aren’t taking about mom and pop who were gifted shares with no ability to control the direction of the company, they’re talking about the scumbags doing buybacks, making short sighted business decisions which lead to the companies enshittification, etc. If you’re too stupid to differentiate between the two, then I’m sorry for you and your union family ✌️

When people say that they just show they don’t get how the system works and they’re not union members.
I just cited you where their medical retirement fund is gasp funded by shareholder value.
I get you hate unions or just lack the knowledge to see how stupid phrases don’t help.
Buybacks help the union as it increases their funds for pensions and medical care. I’m against them but to deny they help the union is just stating you don’t get the symbiotic relationship they have together.

Let me put it another way, fuck the shareholders. If you think that includes your union family members too, that’s your problem, as I’ve said. Again, goodbye

So you are anti-union since that would remove their pensions and healthcare. I get being an edge lord is tough but I support the unions. Wishing for them to lose their pensions and healthcare is twisted.
