No, because I believe it is instructive for the other based unions. When minority, extreme, and unrealistic interests hijack a union, that union is bound to fail. AAOA were also unable to understand the true limitations and scope of their leverage.

All unions have these destructive voices within. The question is whether they formulate union objectives or not, whether they sit in leadership positions or not, whether they infect the rest of the membership or not.

A union cannot combat CX’s toxic management tactics with their own toxicity. The double negative doesn’t create a positive unless you have the courts or some other third party to come in and force an agreement. Even then, I believe the reasonable, measured, and balanced unions tend to do better.
