Would love to see this happen in the US. Would be a total shitshow but very entertaining to watch.

Not legal, unfortunately.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taft%E2%80%93Hartley_Act

The Taft–Hartley Act amended the 1935 National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), adding new restrictions on union actions and designating new union-specific unfair labor practices. Among the practices prohibited by the Taft–Hartley act are jurisdictional strikes, wildcat strikes, solidarity or political strikes, secondary boycotts, secondary and mass picketing, closed shops, and monetary donations by unions to federal political campaigns.

Things only happen when they are made happen. Also nothing begins big. there are probably at least small pockets of resistance everywhere, even if its just small groups of people or singular persons.

Short time shit show, long term benefit for everyone.

Isn't unionizing a crime in some states or somesuch?

In some ways I'm surprised by the confusing name of right to work states which turns out to be really easy to fire states.
