"I would add that another factor explaining the very modest turnout is the 
virtual absence of the organized labor movement. Incapable of defending its own 
interests, not to mention the interest of workers under attack by imperialism 
in other countries, the terribly bureaucratized, pro-capitalist and often 
corrupt labor fakers contributed nothing to this worthy national effort, that 
included a major focus on defending working people in every aspect of social 
life.”

By way of comparison, what was the attitude of the organized labour movement at 
the beginning of the Vietnam protests?
It is my impression that the labour movement of that time was just as 
bureaucratic and just as slow to respond to the war.
