Unions

Really tired of folks coming in here to blame unions or complain about union voters.

Seems like quite a few posts a day.

To set the record straight, union households were one of the few groups that did not defect to Trump in comparing 2020 to 2024 exit polls.

That number includes anyone who lives in a household with a union member, and it is not exclusively union members who vote.

BUT if you’re going to complain that “this is who you voted for,” I would really like you to include in your post the following:

• Did you actively participate in labor to labor political programs this cycle?

• Did you actively talk politics with members in your local and agitate about what was at stake?

• Have you done any the year-round work needed to inoculate your local against “anti-DEIA” or “anti-Woke” talking points?

Because if you did not do all of these things, you can kindly fuck off.

Get in there and start doing the work.
