Adding to your comments about some Steelworkers union headquarters showing Marxist slogans, Staughton Lynd is also a Marxist. He showed his true colors went he went to Hanoi in 1965 with traitor Tom Hayden and Communist Party theoretician Herbert Aptheker, a lifelong Stalinist, to support communist aggression against South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.
At least Lynd had some feelings for the working people. Aptheker did whatever Moscow told him to do or say, while Hayden became the “new” American communist, a guy, who according to his friend named Gardner, wanted to be the American “Stalin”.
One of the reasons wanted Americans to buy American steel despite the high labor costs for producing it (thanks to the Unions), was to keep their hold on the working class as a way of promoting “socialism” and to gain political allies in the Democrat Party.
Look what it cost the honest working guy. Perhaps Lynd should have studied American free enterprise and capitalism instead of Marxism. He would have seen that it would have been better for the people he wanted to help, not harm
Old reds never die. They just smell that way.
He could’ve been a contender.
Ok, but how does buying all our steel from Red Chinese communists protect us from all of that? If the Unions are red, the bankers and steel using industries who buy from China are just as red.
