Shit man, on an ideologic level I agree with what you said.

On a humanistic level, these guys aren't perfect, and what they are saying is probably very emotionally driven right now. It's not supportive to the unionization cause to hate on them at the moment; support them in the short term, and reflect/educate on their conduct in the longer-term.

You're right. Thanks for pointing that out. It wasn't meant to be only pointed directly at these folks, more so the all of the people that are okay with "certain people" not deserving a living wage, famously McDonalds employees. I think solidarity between both groups will achieve more is all.
