I'm just going to say that I one hundred percent agree with this guy with one caveat.
Unions need to also unfuck themselves too with their members who continually vote for Republicans.
Let me tell you I knew a few to many union members who voted down right to work while voting Republicans and then had a shocked Pikachu face when those same Republicans continue to ram right to work in the legislature. Hate to say it but their members aren't the brightest.
Still, I agree this isn't a chicken and the egg dilemma, Democrats need to step up and publicly have the workers back.

No, its too late for them to wake up.

I've worked at two companies with union workers wearing their maga bullshit. Can't wait until they have no union. Dipshits have fuckal for skills.
-
That's not the take we need. Need to really spell-out, for fucking idiots, an Us (workers) vs Them ($$$) platform.
-
Start by telling them they're stupid and that you have all the answers. That should do the trick.

Again, they don't have the capacity to breath and think at the same time and decades of trying to get the damn horse to drink the water I'd prefer they die of thurst at this point.
The leopards will fead, and that will be my silver lining.

says that the Democrats have a messaging problem with working-class voters
Every other comment here is ignoring this word to the point it almost seems intentional. Read it carefully. Low-income union voters who swayed Republican are voting against their self interests, yes. But this was not adequately communicated to them.
This union leader isn’t saying that union voters are blameless. They are saying that union voters were fed destructive information which compounded with existing white supremacist and conservative bias.
Lemmy read the post challenge, impossible.

Woke needs to wake up

That's both idiotic and irrelevant to the discussion at hand. Congratulations.

Wasn't Biden the first sitting president to join the picket line? Didn't Trump and Elon joke about killing the Unions? Seems it's like the union workers need to wake up. Tired of pointing fingers. The unions have abandoned the democratic party. They grabbed Trump by the hand because he promised victimism.
Um... Union workers voted for Harris. Like seriously look it up before speaking.

Democrats try not to blame everyone else but their party challenge go.
Blaming people that don't live in reality should be expected.
These union workers don't have an economic anxiety. They have a racism, sexism, bigotism, vicitmism problem.
