The article is pretty stupid, there maybe a bit of a bump in young people joining unions for the simple fact that old farts are retiring but it’s more of a dead cat bounce than a real trend. Young people in my union shop don’t give 2 shits about union business and know darn well that they aren’t represented. The only people that are really benefiting from unions are those near retirement and those in senior positions in union leadership. Everyone else gets crumbs
