    I’m conflicted. I automatically downvote all links to X, but Americans need all the support they can get when it comes to unions. On the other hand, I don’t know what NLRB is… and if people are too lazy to spell out acronyms, I’m too lazy to Google. Not so conflicted anymore.

      You your sake I hope you’re trolling since the alternative is this is who you actually are.

        Not trolling, no. I just have a pet peeve against the use acronyms that come without context. In this case, I’m being a doofus, because this is in unions@, and it is reasonable to assume everyone knows that there. I suppose the real pet peeve is being a bad communicator. It’s more common to see people use acronyms because they think it conveys knowledge of the topic. I was also caught in a bit of a bad mood. I’m a bit tired of American culture and politics. It reaches a certain point, where it’s just… too dumb. E.g. the issue at hand here. I wish you guys the best, the US sure as hell needs it to stall the eventual conclusion of capitalism.
