ok and? I’m talking about important individuals that play a vital part in building and directing worker power. You’re discussing rando teamsters. Yes, there are shitty people in unions. Yes, at one point unions didn’t have the knowledge they have today. That history is important. I won’t deny or downplay it, there are some unions that have some very ugly history. Unions today are not like they were in the past, because unions are solely led by the workers, and those MAGA fascists are a minority in every union in the country. But like I said before, this probably came from the IWW, which never had those problems.
