Massive American unions usually have anti-strike clauses (in this case it’s actually a law), so they will never be able to go that far. Outside organizations would need to organize wildcat strikes of those workers instead. I would say a good strong union even with a clause could still prep their members to respond to a strike call though, they just can’t legally do it themselves

It refers to the official name for the government. Venezuelan would still be correct for everything else.

Yep, definitely seems that way, and for a leftist espousing anti-establishment ideas that raises suspicion for me. Glowing coverage in bastions of liberalism like the Guardian and Pod Save America are kinda strange. He’s kinda a nepo celeb so it’s probably just name recognition and he’s seen as safe and good for a story

More common than you might think. When I lived in a remote Amazonian village in the early 2000s, a local teacher was named Hitler (his given name). This area probably barely had contact with the capital in the 50s, let alone Europe. It wasn’t uncommon to choose a powerful or famous name, and Hitler was probably just someone who they knew changed the world.

There were other interesting names still being given too. My favorite was a baby named Shakira Marley while I lived there.
