unions are inherently democratic so any criticism of them is actually a criticisms of the electorate: you get the leaders you deserve.

nothing inherently wrong with labor unions, there just one type of union a political party is a union and so is a group of parents organizing the neighborhood watch.

Unions provide negotiation parity with management and owners, who, like unions co ordinate together, to further their own agenda (owners literally pay managers to do specifically this). All a union does is level the playing field and says labor is allowed to organize before they go to the bargaining table. Owners and management do it, why not workers?

It's class warfare at it's worst/best.

why would you trust a known liar, even on the off-chance they are telling the truth?

you answered your own question and proved your not a skeptic but a cynic.

Sooo....Are you meaning that as a pejorative? Or a school of thought?

As they are nowadays seemingly and sadly not mutually exclusive, I suppose I'd mean both. I'm more interested in why you dismiss " the off-chance they are telling the truth?"

Why deprive yourself of the truth?
