Yeah, I know, I just think that we have to join AFL-CIO unions as well (or independent unions besides IWW).
Over-focusing on IWW would mean putting too much of our time and resources on, well, helping that union out and giving a communist voice.
I've seen how AFL-CIO unions can swing left if given a communist voice or personnel; we need to be everywhere, be ubiquitous, and not just prioritize one union albeit a large one like the IWW.
(But the IWW is great, don't get me wrong, and helping 'em out or growing their ranks is welcome, but like I said, we need to be everywhere.)
That's all I was saying.
