Yeah, it's always really amusing that the HN crowd so readily gobbles up anti-trust propoganda while in the same breadth will bemoan the size and power of FAANGs. It's seems really easy to just get trapped in that mindset (I feel like I may even get some anti-union comments responding to this comment)

- SQueeeeeL 4y agoThis is precisely the type of comment I was referring too, where the average HN reader has ingrained negative views of unionization, almost always stemming from weird online propaganda that is very difficult to pin to a source (I recall reddit having a lot of anti-collective sentiment). It almost doesn't matter if unions are legal/illegal once the average worker has been poison pilled with a negative perception of them though, because they are implicitly based on worker's trust
