Freedom Foundation Used ‘Trickery’ To Try To Get Teachers To Drop Union Membership ( www.huffpost.com )

Tl;dr: the right wing, anti-union group Freedom Foundation attempted to commit mail fraud to get teachers to drop their union membership.

I guess if you can’t convince people to support your cause, trying to deceive them into doing so is the next best thing.

the AFT said they're reserving the right to file a lawsuit in their Cease and Desist. I hope they pursue it.

What they did is felony mail fraud, so yes. If postal police or the DOJ pursue it, they can absolutely be charged.

They real question is will they be charged?

Leftism

@leftism@lemmy.world

Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it’s leftist, it’s welcome here!

Rules:

Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
No brocialism/sexism
No ableism
No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
No racism
No trolling
No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
Mods have final say

Posting Expectations:

Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends
