The reason is simple - unions are the only effective defense against exploitation by employers in capitalism.

Like my late father said, if companies actually knew how to treat people, there's be no need for unions.

Great article from MintPressNews on the connection between Zionism, and propaganda.
Here's a hint - they're interchangeable, in that they are connected at the hip these days.
This unconditional support is unsurprising, given who actually runs the company. PragerU CEO Marissa Streit is, after all, an Israeli spy. On her eighteenth birthday, Streit joined Unit 8200, the Israeli Defense Force’s spying agency. In interviews, she has admitted that she was an officer in the controversial unit, and stated that she uses the tactics and techniques honed by Israeli spying agency on the American people. “Coming back here to the United States with the gifts that Israel had given me during my military training, I felt compelled to employ them here in my nation of the United States,” she explained.
Exactly what her role as a Unit 8200 officer remains a mystery. Streit has said of her time there that, “We were tasked with looking at problems that the intelligence community might be missing.” Given that her service coincides with the Second Palestinian Intifada, however, one can speculate that suppressing domestic resistance to occupation was among her tasks.

Quote of the day -
We must not allow ourselves to grow desensitized to the reality of what our tax dollars could be funding instead of the spread of surveillance, destruction, and devastation. And we must make it clear that we will never mistake the roar of engines overhead for the promise of peace, whether that is abroad or here.
Every dollar spent on one of these performative fighter jet overpasses is a dollar stolen from our communities. The budget is a clear reflection of what the country values, and right now, our budget says we value genocide, destruction, and the theater of war over the substance of peace and the actual betterment of our communities, our country.
The America and Freedom 250 celebrations ask us to reflect on what our nation stands for, a nation started by genocide, carried out by slavery, fueled by exploitation, and exposing how militarism, racism, and fascism are on full display. Why do we spend trillions to destroy and destabilize the world, while spending pennies on investments to make our own communities actually safe?
This has to be a sign of something.
UAW becomes the first major U.S. union to vote to divest from Israel Bonds
UAW delegates voted to divest the union’s reported $400,000 in Israel Bonds, making it the first major U.S. union to do so. Organizers say it’s a victory for international solidarity and a sign of the working class's growing rejection of Israel.

“Merciless Indian Savages” - a reminder of what's in the 'Declaration of Independence'.
Why not just say that racism (namely white supremacy) and religious superiority go hand-in-hand with the hierarchical nature of capitalism?
I bring it up because neither words (racism, capitalism) are anywhere to be found in the article.

If i needed a reminder that propaganda serves to demonize, divide people, and keep them at each other ...
... a system that keeps the rich and powerful in control, look no further than mass media in this country.
Specifically the American movie industry aka 'Hollywood'.
When it comes to the black man specifically, the beast, the ghost, and crazy one, and the predator are all useful tropes to keep him down.
