Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions.
FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 1 day agoI agree with you
Most people won’t understand the difference or read your link
Especially because “company” unions aren’t a thing in the civilised world

I just added the link just seconds ago. Apparently looking up terms people don’t know is too difficult.

It’s more that context is important. The thread is about “Police Unions”, so it’s not surprising that people would read “Company Union” as meaning a union at a commercial enterprise by contrast, rather than the highly specific definition that you’ve used that distinguishes a company union from a trade union.
You can either prance about in the thread about how dumb everyone else is, or you could edit your original statement to clarify what you meant.
