Apart from worker rights they are basically terrified that unions are an antidote to right wing propaganda with the poorest whites.

Opinions for most people are formed communally - they own the church-business and bastardised it so much with prosperity gospel so that is not a concern it once was with civil rights etc. but churches have increasingly less reach than they once had and they haven’t found a way to strangle or bastardise unions just yet. And fox news and other propaganda outlets have diminished value with Gen Z onwards.

I’m sure they’re working their darnedest to get the sheep back in line, corrupt the unions by bribing leadership to work against the interest of their members or one way or another kill them.

Get involved and stay involved.
