This is the stupidest fucking thing a union could do because it's going to cause internal conflict and deter people from wanting to work with teamsters. It could even deter people from joining it.

I wouldn't want to join a union if I knew 60% of the membership were fucking tories.

The Maoist Communist Union is like “if we just organize the teamsters” and as a member I’m just shaking my head.

These drivers are gonna make up the brown shirts.

The Maoist Communist Union

Wait, do communists have a union to fight against their exploitation by the communist functionaries?

Yes. Communism doesn’t mean exploitation no longer exists, it just means you seek to reduce it as much as possible. Inequality will always exists, and it can be as local as your manager forcing you to work uncompensated overtime without knowledge or consent from the party or government. You can have all the communist laws and theories, but you still need people to make sure those laws and theories are understood and practiced. Shitty management will exist regardless of ideology because not everyone is cut out for it.
