I’m going to be very vigilantly watching the AFL-CIO. I’m already starting to see rhetoric on the socials that the Ds failed because they didn’t broaden the base enough to include working class Americans. I think we’re going to see the AFL-CIA sheepdog the labor movement into some sort of Patriotic Socialism/Maga Socialism shit.
I’m pretty ignorant here and may be talking out my ass, but I’d be surprised if they’d start to even pretend to be socialist in the foreseeable future.
I wouldn’t be surprised, but I agree it’s not likely going to go over well with their current older membership. But the union drive on the ground is not sufficiently defended against PatSoc revision and we ARE on a war drive that seems to be bringing Euro-fascism to America, so I can see the precursors at this point.
I wouldn’t be surprised. If the tariffs go through and prices skyrocket the admin will need a scapegoat, and I don’t think “woke” will resonate. My guess is they attack unions. Despite the absurdity of that notion it has a proven track record. Whip up a furor, use it to kill the NLRB. Nothing changes but by then six months have gone by and nobody cares.
