Comment on is there a useful way for tech workers to express interest in a union?
Hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz 11 months agoWere anti-union? How is that possible? Why would anyone other than the CEO of the company be anti-union? So many things I don’t understand about America, but this union stuff has to be somewhere in the top 10.

You are correct but many workers in the US (tech and otherwise) are only aware of unions as historical tools of organized crime/corruption, or are libertarian (which gets higher representation in tech circles) and believe the free market will provide for them and/or that unions excessively harm companies. There are likely other reasons but these are reasons I’ve heard from people I know.
These views are reinforced by corporate and libertarian (which is of course funded by corporate) propaganda.
