Can you point out where I spoke down about them? I fully support them except for this very specific issue. I'm just expressing my empathy for the low wage workers who don't really have a choice.
Not to mention that we have 8 hour workdays, weekends off, payed time off and other benefits all thanks to union efforts. All of them we take granted for. We shouldn't forget where they came from.
I feel like you're the one talking down here. Not everyone has the luxury of supporting the strike, they need to pay bills, and eat. If you can't support that, then your opinion is not one of relevance.
You speak of privilege when you're talking down to striking workers.
I forgive you, but please stop and rethink that sentence.

The only thing separating underpaid workers from union workers is the picket line.
If they want better conditions, create or join a union.
Yes its hard. Yes you'll be harassed, threatened and some even assaulted/killed.
But together, low paid workers can unionize and improve their life.
Which is also how we know it is effective.

The five day workweek is thanks to unions.
Yep that's what I said.

That's a loser crab-bucket mentality and you know it. Do better.
