I'd argue that higher salaries, better work conditions, and so forth is exactly what this union is being formed to address.

The idea is that collective bargaining can equalize the salaries, work conditions, etc. for all members, not just the pale-skinned ones.

You seem to be implying Google plays its white employee pays more because of overt discrimination, and that is impetus for a union. Any evidence for this belief?
I'm not implying that, nor do I believe that. I'm only trying to rationalize the union from their viewpoint.
Maybe, but if that were their real goal, they’d lose all the activist language and moral judgments.
