      Yeah, even the most worker friendly business can have blind spots. Hell, if Unions themselves can have blind spots, then anything with a motive of profit is going to have FAR more, no matter what they do or say

      Always be pro union, always trust the workers that a business is abusive, never trust the business

      You can support unions across the board and still be able to commend Costco on the good it does for its employees.

      Anyone who shits wholesale on the company (pun intended) is missing the point.

      Respectfully, I think that’s where the downvotes are coming from.

      More downvotes. Am I the only one here actually holding a Red Card?

        A lot of the downvotes are probably coming from lemmy world and sh.itholefor.nazis, two instances that are really bad for downvoting anything left of hitler. Fun fact: if you get banned from those instances your post stop showing up for their users so can’t downvote you.

          In truth I have a high tolerance for fake internet demerits. If I get no downvotes at all it’s a sign of tailism.
