Would like to have a word with you.
I'd advise against calling him a communist.

United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain compared Israel to the fascist nations of World War II in a tweet Friday celebrating the union’s call for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, after the Palestinian Hamas terror organization violated a seven-day truce.

The UAW should should stay in its lane. THEY are the NAZIS.

Your average union leader is a corrupt leftist. That will not change.
But the average union worker pretty much mirrors society as a whole. There are many conservative union guys. Reagan was able to reach them. And to an extent, Trump was too.
So a good strategy would be to bypass the union leaders, and appeal directly to the union workers. Don’t bash the union guys (although they often need bashing). Don’t pander to them. Instead work to get their votes.
I wonder how many Jews are UAW union members?
I wonder what makes this UAW brainiac think Hamas will honor a ceasefire?
The only solution is for the IDF to stamp them out like the bugs they are.
***Unions, communists. Same thing. Hey uaw.***
True. Kettle calling the pot “black”.
“Controversial problems [between Germany and Russia] did not, in my opinion, exist anywhere along the line from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea and to the Far East.
“In addition, despite all the divergencies in their views of life, there was one thing common to the ideology of Germany, Italy and the Soviet Union: opposition to the capitalist democracies in the West.”—Julius Schnurre, Nazi trade rep to Russia.

And that is why I will NEVER buy a car the UAW has any hand in producing.
A lot of Muslims in Dearborn work for GM.
OK, more of my dumb questions. Why would the UAW have a foreign policy? What possible reason would they have for even caring about what is happening in Gaza? Do Palestinian sympathizers make up any proportion of their membership?
Yes, it is quite a name. Is his brother’s name IRA?
As if we didn’t already have enough reasons to stop buying their junk.
really??? i dint know there were UAW members in gaza...
No, unions are not inherently bad. They've done some necessary things, such as improving workers' lives.
Some people credit unions with preventing Communist revolution in the U.S. During the 1930s, some union organizers wanted revolution, but others wanted simply to improve conditions for workers.
Both FDR and Republican politicians supported the latter faction, and by improving worker conditions, deradicalized many workers. During the 1950s, the AFL (later merging with the more radical CIO) was an active opponent of Communism.
The Teamsters were supporters of Nixon and Reagan. They and the AFL-CIO both supported Solidarity in its fight against Polish Communism.
So while there are radical left elements within some unions, unions are neither inherently nor universally bad.
Same reason the Oakland city council is fighting about supporting or criticizing Hamas or Israel.
As if they didn’t have other things to worry about in Oakland.
“I hate these people with a white-hot passion.”
My solution: never buy an American-built car.
.....Shawn Fain.....
“Sinn Féin (/ʃɪn ˈfeɪn/ shin FAYN,[19] Irish: [ˌʃɪn̠ʲ ˈfʲeːnʲ]; English: “[We] Ourselves”)[20] is an Irish republican[6] and democratic socialist[7] political party in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.”

Any connection?
However, UAW’s Shawn Fain is acting more like Nazis than like Irish rebels. Phooey!
Wrong. MAGA populists should seek out, recruit, and support union leaders who are sympathetic to MAGA. Unions and union leaders should not be lazily conceded to the Left.
Granted, government workers unions are probably a lost cause
All my life, I’ve only bought American cars. Back in the 1970s and 1980s, we were raised to believe that “buying American” was the patriotic thing to do.
Projection of the worst kind. If only he could be helicopter - dropped onto the Fakestinian terrorist murder gangsters he so loves
Would like to have a word with you.
I'd advise against calling him a communist.
The free workers at Toyota and Honda, for example, would like to have a word with you.
