    Look I’m giving no credit to the president and strikebreaker in chief lol I’m just saying I have heard a lot from Starbucks, Amazon, and other smaller places, it just surprises me that even with that there is still a loss of union jobs. I guess every moment you’re not hearing about it is when the backsliding is happening

      Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply you were doing that, I was just outlining the most common liberal rhetorical strategy when it comes to unions since 2020

      I think in a lot of those cases it is unionized trying to make a union and not always succeeding, so they wouldn’t be counted among the numbers of unionized workers. The ones that do succeed compromise hundreds, maybe a few thousand people, which is not a large part of the work force.
