You’re skirting one of the more basic issues with a grad skool union: turnover in potential membership. “Teachers” (are expected_ teach for two, maybe three years of their (normally) six-year stint. By 2021, GESO will have to start all over again, cajoling, colluding, coercing, etc.

GSA and GPSS have already fulfilled most of GESO’s whines — which freed GESO to go full-bore UAW-style SJW/socialist/nat’l “issues,” when most graddies just wanted mo’ money and maybe better dental and childcare and like that.

Nothing like revealing your ignorance, eh, Sparky?

Now a graduate student union can organize across campus, and, by 2021, when a new administration is in office, then there will be a friendlier NLRB. In addition, if Yale continues to be hostile, there will be even more evidence of pattern and practice of such hostility, thus bolstering a graduate student union’s case.

Not. Really. And allow me to me rephrase the penultimate para:

Since its inception as TA Solidarity, GESO has fomented internal and external discord, with many targets and members expressing distrust for GESO leadership, preferring proven channels such as GSA and GPSS (and, more importantly, the GPSCY!) to solve issues and promote solutions (and, in the lattermost-noted student assembly, world peace, ofttimes known, at sufficiently late of an hour, as “wrrld peash”).
