being helpful or social or fun while carrying your politics openly does change people minds little bit

I think the way to go, and this is for more than just unions, is engineering social time that directly addresses the loneliness epidemic. Union funds should be spent on weekly bowling meetups and shit. I think there’s a lot of people who would make time for that if it was pre-paid, and just getting people into a casual activity together on a regular basis would be ten times more effective at organizing them than any online based agitation.
to speak to the efficacy of this, i had a group of coworkers who would meet up and play music together after work occasionally.
we all worked in the same office and occasionally topics like unionization or how crappy everything at our company is would come up, i think due to the casual hangouts we did.
