I think you should basically be a stasi foot soldier for the party that bailed out your pension to the tune of a few billion dollars

Bailing out the Teamsters was honestly a mistake. Dems rewarded mismanagement without receiving anything in return

Organised Labor is the backbone of left-of-centre parties, but you can't cuddle them every time they fuck up

Democrats need to abandon the β€œtraditional” blue-collar union in favor of service-sector & white-collar ones.

I think theres something to be said that the leadership of much of the big unions are just completely out of their mind. Like im sorry that NAFTA was an objectively good deal???

NAFTA was a good deal but was convenient to blame for companies making bad decisions and the failure of the feds to help with the economic changes it caused. About the only thing we should have added was minimum labor protections into the deal.

Perhaps theres a smattering of gender when we're talking about "manly automotive jobs" when the UAW or the like are offering only the most tepid of defence to their grad worker unions
