some day I wanna run thru a Walmart just shouting “UNION!” and see how many security goons run after me. (prob not many, does Walmart even have security people)
I have a friend who’s a teacher in Virginia. Their governor is apparently trying to outlaw teaching about the labor strikes of the late 1800s, the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, Frances Perkins, and other related things. Thankfully people are revolting, but… these corporate-backed stooges really don’t want people to learn about unions. But they certainly will because people in other places are unionizing, which is a beautiful thing. Unions are a good thing so long as they fight for their workers and don’t become political machines instead.
More and more “fighting for the workers” requires political machinations in order to circumvent the corporate lapdogs that infest statehouses nowadays and pass boilerplate anti-union laws concocted by think tanks.
foreshadowing!
You may laugh but some places do jump on you if you mention the word union.

Nice to know that in the end, Darnell came through for Cooper.

But point taken.
I smell biases with this take.
Yet you are a fan of this comic…
Darnell really will be a good friend for Cooper.
