My point is that MSNBC might actually believe in Unions but out of self interest are unwilling to sacrifice themselves.



A belief doesn’t mean much, imo, of anything if their actions aren’t aligned.


Ok, I should have elaborated:

They may believe in Unionism at large, for others to observe, like a parent steering their child from drugs, but they may see unions as antithetical to their own business. Lots of elite progressives are like this. Down with cops, defund the police, but then turn around and hire private security -see the mayor of Chicago, for example.


Ah, good point and basically in-line with what I was pointing out in my post. That is possible.
