We’re Google Workers, and We Are Forming a Union

Came here to say the same thing. This “union” sounds more like a splinter branch of a far left political party, not an organization dedicated to the collective bargaining rights of its members.

I expect it to fail simply because the ideological tone will turn off most people.

I think you're correct, but I doubt it will be as far left as you say. Any union at Google will be dominated by "workers" with economic interests and social and educational backgrounds virtually identical to management. They're the same educated meritocratic progressive technical/managerial class who dominate the Democratic Party. They don't believe anything different from what most of the country believes; they just take pride in being further ahead because they're smarter and work harder.
