Trader Joeās, SpaceX, and Meta are arguing in lawsuits that government agencies protecting workers and consumersāthe NLRB and FTCāare āunconstitutional.ā
Trader Joeās has become the second company in a month to sue the National Labor Relations Board for being āunconstitutional,ā following the lead of Elon Muskās SpaceX, as both companies face board charges for firing employees. These two major corporations arenāt alone in attempting to protect their interests by undermining public institutions; Meta is also arguing in an ongoing lawsuit that the Federal Trade Commission is unconstitutional.
A legal expert told Motherboard that these companies are attempting to take advantage of what they believe is a friendly Supreme Courtājudges currently lean right by a six-to-three margināwhile they can.
Yeah, and I know the Mussolini quote youāre referencing. Mussolini was deliberately dismissing the several aspects of fascism that made it look re brutal than mere corporatism. The integration of mobilized militias with government, the criminalization of all descent and popular organization, the elimination of out groups, etc.
Youāre being dismissive of what rights we have to protest and organize. Or the rights of some people to just exist. Guessing you donāt use them so why would you appreciate them.
Only person that is dismissing others rights, like individual opinion, is you.
To paraphrase James Baldwin, āwe can love and disagree with each other, as long as that disagreement isnāt about my humanity and right to existā
