That title is bad because the US unions are only unique in their comprador status, not in the repression they’ve faced. Calling Shawn Fain a radical is cringeworthy too. Otherwise a pretty good article for Jacobin. It’s entirely correct too. Most US unions today are basically just massive insurance/pension funds with extremely low risk tolerance.

The unions are part of the corporations themselves anymore. I know some of ya’ll on here were all about Shawn Fain which blew me away because he was see-thru as fuck. He’s a corporate stooge.
