Probably because of the baseball strike that resulted in a lost season.

With the USSR destroyed and the economy soaring, the rich no longer felt particular threatened by the idea of domestic organized labor anymore, especially once they began outsourcing jobs in order to undermine any leverage domestic labor had. Now that the working class is legit suffering from a failed system and is looking for an alternative, and China has gone from a shithole basket case to a Socialist superpower, the rich are scared again. They no longer want real Americans to get any funny ideas about seizing the means of production. The /pol/tards will respond to this with "Muh Woke" as if that's not exactly the point. When's the last time you saw the characters enact a strike and drive out scabs instead of talk about DEI?
