Union thugs are full of more hate than your average nonunion DemocRATs. I never thought that was possible.

...unionists replied, "Fascists, go home!" Unionism itself is fascism. Hitler's pro-labor political movement was named the National Socialist German Workers Party.
Socialism for workers and terrorism for all. That's what labor unions are all about. Unions are simply evil incarnate.

Guilty conscience manifesting itself.
Same way the countries we give the most aid to, bitterly resent us.

We are told to "look for the union label". Well, here it is:

IMO, many in the Unions are thugs and goons; they haven’t just turned that way now.

Not surprising they’re thuggish, considering the fact that they’re thugs.

They didn’t just turn thuggish, they’ve always been thuggish. It’s who they are.
It’s just that now they think that thuggishness will force others to capitulate.
It will work to some degree, but with times as they are, they’re going to lose a lot of ground.

IMO, many in the Unions are thugs and goons; they haven’t just turned that way now. Unionism is evil and deceitful by definition. It's premise is collective bargaining which is a form of Communist collectivism, pitting employees against those who actually create the jobs in the first place!
The history of labor unions in the United States is filled with corrupt bosses with Communist influences from the days of the Wobblies (IWW) to the present. Many of its most influential leaders are subversive foreigners (Samuel Gompers and Benjamin Schlesinger among hundreds of others).
In the wake of unionism lies only ruin. Look at the auto industry in Detroit, killed by the UAW. Pittsburgh's rusting steel mills are a direct result of the leftist USW. The failure of the education system is attributable to teachers' unions such as the NEA, under the thumb of the vile leftist Dennis Van Roekel.
Unions destroy everything they touch. Period. Paragraph. Chapter. Book.
