Congrats to the New Yorker Union. As to the future, rest easy. I'm sure Joe Biden supports the repeal of Taft-Hartley.

Based on observation and history, if Joe Biden repeals Taft-Hartley, pigs will finally grow wings.

He's had plenty of opportunities to do something about repealing it and it's still there.

I'm not in a sector that has traditionally organized (VERY white collar). I literally have no idea what a union would look like for my business type, but have entertained the idea that it would, actually, be very nice to have/be in one. Keep fighting the good fight!

Also, since you all were in GMGU/WGA-E in the Before Times, is Discourse unionized?

It's a step beyond unionized, I think. Worker owned.

Co-ops and employee-owned are the key to prosperity for workers.

Yeah, phrased the question badly. I meant to ask: Is everyone still in the union?
