Is this comm always like this, with people not even having a Wikipedia-level familiarity with syndicalism or the IWW?

Interesting. Pro union and have worked for Costco in the past. Hard to imagine they'd unionize since, at least while I worked there, they paid well and treated us well.

Alllthough, I worked in the foodcourt and that department kind ofgetst treated like second class compared to the checkers and warehouse.
