I'll be honest i didn't expect this forum of all places to be so pro-union.

I understand why some people need collective bargaining to raise their position in the workplace but i thought this forum was full of talented professionals.

Being a talented professional and being pro-union is not mutually exclusive. Unions can (and oftentimes do) serve as a counter to employers leverage, while admittedly reducing workplace flexibility. Unions have achieved worker-rights that are now taken for granted, keeping these will need entities working towards that

There are plenty of talented professionals over 40 who wish they had union protections.

Not in civilised countries.

What!
