Yep, there's a reason they don't teach actual labor history or the idea of collective bargaining in school (at least in the US, I know this is in regards to a Polish company, but I suspect it is similar). They want compliant workers who are just smart enough to run the machines, but not smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and realize how badly they've been getting fucked for seventy years (To paraphrase George Carlin). They make sure this kind of material isn't taught so there is always a steady supply of starry eyed youths who don't know any better.

We get taught it in the US, but its usually in the vein of company towns and pinkertons, not the modern mundane stuff.

Pinkerton are sadly still modern day stuff.
