Dismissing any form of dissent as purely the result of propaganda is not a good way to bring people to your side.
> In what world should a UNION of the workers care about the COMPANY? Maybe if the workers in the union partly owned the company.
For one, a meaningful amount of tech worker compensation comes in the form of company stock. For another, I would argue that anyone who wants to stay in their job long term should care about the company and it's long term health.
I'm not dismissing ANY form of dissent. I'm dismissing the "unions mostly cater to the mediocre employees" as propaganda which ignores the universal benefits a union gives to all employees, mediocre and superstar alike. Benefits that would either not be guaranteed without a negotiated contract or would be hard to have conceded on an individual basis.
