the NLRB itself is a bourgeois institution that severely handicaps what unions can be. having the state be the arbiter of organized labor power fundamentally changes what unions even are.
If people don't know any examples of this: I can't speak for many unions, but I know that it is not uncommon (might be universal) that if workers get tired of their union (let's say they have a good reason, like their national is being too lib or whatever), they aren't allowed to simply reafilliate; they need to dissolve their union and re-unionize one year later
Blanc is an incoherent liberal academic that says really stupid shit on a regular basis. He might name-drop Marx on occasion but he clearly hasn't even read Das Kapital once for comprehension.
Stumbled upon the concept of "outside factors and material conditions" and thinks he's disproved marxism :farquaad-point:
My brother in christ you're still inside the marxism, you never left
I'm pretty sure Eric Blanc is Marxist, he's not trying to disprove marxism here

Shit, that is well played. Fucked up, but well played.
:doomer:
Indeed, which is why there are so many pushes to reform unions internally: there's literally no other feasible option to kick out the corporate goons.
