You mean the trade unions and politicians support capitalism and their politics are nationalism, racism and the defence of capitalism. Expressed as 'the bosses have every right and workers have none and 'capitalism at all costs.' Their treachery is a consequence of those politics. Ever heard the trade union officials and Laborites called the 'labor lieutenants of capitalism'? The first time was 92 years ago when they sent workers off to a war beneficial for the war industry and dividing up the world for 'big business.' Workers sacrificed their sons and their own lives along with limbs whilst compelled to shoot other workers. Worker shooting worker, another way of seeing it is 'pitting worker against worker' to 'divide and conquer', 'divide and steal.' The trade unions and politicians knew what war is about. The big lie they exaggerated was "a war to end all wars" that is, until the next war was essential.
As to workers supporting capitalism, why then, would workers ever go on strike? Are they not striking against capitalism? Didn't they overthrow capitalism in 1917 only to have the power usurped by the Stalinist beauracracy? The power was stolen off them. Didn't workers take the road to power in Spain in 1936 against capitalism, but were defeated? Marxists have always maintained who ever owns the means of production owns the ideas in society. It is through those ideas a small ruling class rules, a handfull. Those ideas oppress workers, ideas are very powerful, and make modern slaves out of workers. As well, it is not what this or that worker thinks but what workers as a whole will be compelled to do. From out of its fiery furnace of this system, this system itself produces its own gravedigger a revolutionary class.
