Frankly, I'm bored with this thread because it's going around in circles, so this will likely be my last post on the subject.
I deleted all the other commentary to your post because it's emotional, personal and paranoid.
But the quote above is really the PERTINENT ISSUE.
My response is: Sure! ALPA would love to have you (and your dues money). But GOOD LUCK trying to get FAIR REPRESENTATION from them.
If you think your REPRESENTATION was bad under IBT, just wait until you need something from ALPA.
This is really the kernel of the entire issue. Typical emotional human response.
Again, good luck. You're gonna need it!
