This is actually a win for UAW. They want to unionize Tesla’s workers, so any anti-union activity on Elon’s part just gives them more ammunition with the NLRB, which has strict rules regarding what ownership is allowed to say publicly. It plays directly into their hands.
Also worth saying that the Biden NLRB is the most pro-union and labor-friendly in history.
I didn’t realize that the blue check did anything meaningful that would make it so horrible.
They didn’t put the UAW in a prison camp. Ffs I’m sorry but it’s a leap from blue check to prison camp.
I’ve since discovered that this is a red vs blue powered issue, which makes this discussion moot. Throwing rocks for any reason at the other color isn’t useful. I vote third party and stay out of red vs blue.
I always find it interesting, people assume the Nazis started with killing the Jews, the Gays, the Socialists, the “Degenerate” etc… as soon as they existed, but no, they didn’t, they had to work their way up to that. and some of the first things they did was work to delegitimize their opposition and keep them from speaking out.
As for “I vote third party” good for you, you could just not go to vote, even if a 3ed party gains traction it will only serve as a spoiler to whoever that third party is closer aligned to.
And for the “other color” bullshit, you need to have quite a bit of privilege to say this, after all, LGBTQ rights, woman’s rights, POC Rights, are all just a “blue vs. red” issue in America, but these issues decide on the rights of millions of people.
