Business people can organize for the sake of their shared interests but workers doing it is propagandistic? We don't support their pursuit of their interests but instead indulge generations of false equivalencies and anti-union rhetoric to make people feel they are giving up something by asking for things together. The middle ground you claim to speak for is just people without lots of money being shamed out of the pursuit of their individual betterment given their economic position.

I said that what the union was saying was propaganda as well. > make people feel they are giving up something by asking for things together I don't think you have to go up something by asking for things together, but it does seem likely in practice doesn't it? A large group of people are unlikely to all agree on exactly what they wanted without any compromise amongst themselves are they? Any some of the compromises might mean individual workers actually have their interests damaged.
