Corporate takeover of Supreme Court: all but one justice vote in favor of Starbucks

I miss Sobe Energy. That was my favorite drink but if they even still make it, it's no longer sold in IL.

Calm down, gang. Even Jackson agreed with the judgment, if not all of the reasoning. Corrupt Court, sure, but this one they probably got right. I hate Starbucks too, and I wish the NLRB the sharpest teeth in the world, but preliminary injunctive relief should be extraordinary.

...It's important to also saturate your for profit media machines with orwellian capitalist propaganda to make the poors blame eachother and only look upwards at their owners in reverence, gratitude, false hope and worship.

The NLRA was a response to militant labor organizing. While it seems like a capitulation at first, in reality it was a coups for ruling class interests and the bosses. Under the new regime, organized labor became much more legalized, entirely under the control of the anti-labor government, and could be robbed of its more radical elements that pushed for escalatory direct action, sympathy strikes, and wider coordination. The NLRA emphasized the worst aspects of trade unionism while weakening the best.

So basically, yeah. And here's hoping to its delegitimization.

Jackson was a concurrence, not a dissent, meaning it was 9-0 in reality.

(unless this is a different Starbucks ruling that I haven't seen yet)
