    Which is fine. But you can’t deny the entire history of worker’s rights is haunted by capitalists trying to prevent or entirely suppress it. Socialism has followed the same path. Any time it is implemented from basic worker rights, which is a left socialist goal, it is intentionally poisoned by those in power.

      Of course it is. That’s why the role of governments in a capitalist society includes protecting workers rights, including union rights. That’s best done via democratic representation in a liberal democracy. But the presence of workers rights or union rights doesn’t end capitalism.
