    You condemn the union? Wow you are evil. A pro confederacy pacifist now that’s a first. Do you also condemn the allies? The ANC? The IRA? The militant unions who won the 8 hour work day and 5 day workweek? and If your answer to any of this is no you have quite the inconsistent position.

    whataboutism

    Nonsense word used by shithead debatebros to avoid comparative argument that would expose their hypocrisy and inconsistencies.

      Calling out actions that causes human suffering could be considered evil I am sure. But only for people who would act like bootlickers to nations and corporations.

      Do I condemn other nations for doing the same things? Yes, of course. You are clearly out if your league living out some campist fantasy. I have no dogs in this fight and I am most critical of the country I am from since I know it the best.

      What does labor unions have to do with this discussion. You are pretty far off the topic unless you can explain your reasoning.

      I can see that the term whataboutism is triggering you. I will refrain from using this loaded language in the future.
