  • This times a million. Your union is not a third party, it’s you and your coworkers. Union dues are the collective resources you and your coworkers put together to fight the boss and protect your rights. Its so the boss cant say “I changed my mind, here’s what’s happening now” because they will do that shit all the time even when you have a contract. You need a strike fund, a lawyer, a staff organizer to support and train you and no dues means none of these exist. Then your boss can do whatever cause “what are you gonna do about it”







  • Not sure if all of these are shibboleths but they’re definitely things I’ve heard leftists say
