The cool thing about a union is that you actually can have a say in what political battles they fight
You just can't do that if you only want to be a passive member

Not really my thing here since i'm belgian and we have multiple cross industry unions competeting. However from what i hear about american unions it starts to sounds like an argument for acting and arguing against a union if it leans against your politics and you don't have enough influence whilst also not doing enough towards your wage/work conditions.
I don’t want to waste time to fight battles within the union. This is exactly what I’m talking about. If it’s just a political nonprofit with forced donations, I’d rather see them banned than join one.

The only group that will benefit from this position is that of the owners.
GP must be one of those temporarily not-owning owners.
