@salixsericea Well no it's the opposite.

These organizations have been hostile to workers, interfering in our ability to sell our labor, telling us when we can and can't work.

For once the hostility is a little bit mitigated. Just a little bit. But let's appreciate that.

Workers have a little more freedom right now to sell their labor. We shouldn't let that be spun against us.

@salixsericea Yes! A little more freedom does include freely joining other workers, but that's the entire point, US labor regulations that are executed by agencies like the NLRB push the pendulum to the other side, not so much allowing free joining but instead imposing membership on workers whether they want it or not.

It would be great if US labor regulations did what you described with the free joining. Unfortunately, that's not how they work on the ground.
