> I'm sure there are other things that call themselves unions but don't serve the same function we expect of organizations using that word

No True Scotsman. All unions are unimpeachable. Because those that aren’t aren’t real unions.

I can see you're no fan of nuance. I pointed to what I believe is an important distinction between the general function of unions and that of police unions, this is hardly a claim of unimpeachability. Then when you for some non-sequitur reason started "what about"ing other unions, I said that I don't know enough about those to know whether they have a similar problem

I get the sense that you feel strongly about this subject, but it would do you some good to read the messages you're replying to, as not doing so makes you sound pretty foolish
