I see what you’re saying but I ultimately disagree with the strategy. Blind goals like this demonstrate the shortcomings of trade unions not favoring workers as a whole just their own - this is about safety and the government making businesses mandate what they should have done themselves. But this is the world we live in we’re not getting communism next week.
And you are correct that the unions are strongly encouraging people to be vaccinated regardless, just fighting this weird battle on vaccines instead of say focusing on their the rhetoric on being pro-workplace safety and having the employer paying hazard pay if you have to come in. Otherwise most companies are not firing workers but putting them on leave, but that’s splitting hairs.
And love him but I would not give that much credit to Wolff. Go to your nearest picket line and they’ll tell you what their strike is about.

The closest I am to a strike is the SW Airline Go Brandon guy participating in a sick-in to shut down Southwest for a week.
So I'll openly admit, my perception may be skewed. But all the Chuds in my office and my neighborhood and doing the Uncle Dance on my Facebook feed are bitching about vaccinations. The people I see seriously upset about wages and working conditions aren't striking. They are jumping shit from my current employer and finding work elsewhere.
