I got a bit upset about you saying I was fueling right-wing talking points, so my bad. I'll always fight on the side of labor, even if the Republican party is trying to make them the ball in political games.
Personally I think it would have turned out much better for their union after even a day on strike, but I guess we'll never know. My point is not "they didn't get what they wanted but got something good", it's that the deal was forcibly imposed on them without any other options. I was not aware of the aftermath of the deal so I appreciate you highlighting it, but it still falls short in my eyes. Were I in their union, I'd be a minority opposed to the outcome. But that's the thing, I'm just a guy on the Internet, not a member of IBEW, SMART-MD, or IBT (CWA guy in the tech industry, actually).
I trust you to do the right thing, I don't need a screen shot. Thank you for putting up.

This exchange is why I treasure lemmy. Thank you both
You accused them of listening to Hannity, so uh
Heidisjjwnsnsjwk
This necessarily implies anyone who disagrees listens to Hannity.

No, I'm mad that you smeared everyone who disagrees with you. It was a "joke" but one where we are supposed to be the punchline.
And then you started whining about civility.
