Are you aware of which companies are non-unionized, seek them out, and try to do business exclusively with them?
I know I do my best to patronize only non-unionized companies like Costco, Fresh & Easy, and Walmart. I will never buy an auto where UAW works there. I prefer only to buy American made non-unionized cars like Toyota built in the South.

Why is that? If the product is the same price, why would you prefer to buy products made by workers who have no bargaining power?
I would rather buy union-made products where I can be assured that the workers and management, have mutually agreed on wages and benefits. Intentionally buying goods from companies where the workers have lower rights makes no sense to me.
Have a little respect for unions. They are why most Americans work 5 days a week and have weekends off.
Moreover, WalMart pays its employees so low that a large percentage are eligible for Food Stamps and Medicaid. Why do you feel a need to support the billionaire owners over workers?

Toyota doesn't have union in Japan? (the source of many parts your "choice" likely uses). Your best bet might have been to deal with companies during the reign of the Fascists in Italy and Nazis in Germany, when workers unions were gone, and their leaders were sent to concentration camps as political prisoners.
But don't worry, there's still Sam's Club, if it's really that important for you to patronize a warehouse chain that refuses to treat its employees decently.

I think you spend too much time agonizing over unions.

Just because unions served a good purpose in the past does not mean they serve any useful purpose today.
