The assumption that management’s job is to destroy unions is so deeply embedded in our society that even the iconic civil liberties organization is not immune.
The American Civil Liberties Union, for example, is one of the classic pillars of the liberal nonprofit world. Like many of its peers, it has had its own bouts of anti-union behavior. That behavior reached a shocking new level last September, though, when a dispute with a fired employee led to an ACLU legal filing that argued on technical grounds that Jennifer Abruzzo, the general counsel of the NLRB, was appointed in an unconstitutional manner, and that her authority is therefore illegitimate.
If only the ACLU was fighting on behalf of the workers.

Wow, that’s fucked up!
