I'd like to think they're all just Russian trolls but increasingly, I think some people are just selfish or dumb.

This is exactly why the railroad strike failed lmao.
Even UAW's future strike plan is May 1, 2028, which is strategically a presidential election year, 5 months before the election.
The UAW struck after the railroad strike. And got Biden to personally come down to ask the what he could do to secure their vote. Both happened while Biden was in office. What are you even saying about why the railroad strike failed?
Biden signs bill to block U.S. railroad strike
Oh wow a link with absolutely no context or synopsis!
I guess the synopsis can be "Unions approve of Bidens handling of railway strike."
Okay? And by the end of the following year, the UAW had struck and used their explicit statement that they were not yet committed to endorsing a candidate for president that Biden came down to the picket lines himself to picket in support of the UAW, which helped them get landmark contract deals.
UAW says they might not endorse Biden Biden goes to the picket line UAW gets historic deals
If you're that dialed in to the railroad strike this long after the fact, you are absolutely aware that Biden helped get the unions their biggest demands shortly after ending the strike.
Get your bad faith soundbite bullshit out of here.
