"Same as if you don't want to follow any other rules laid down by your job"

Instead of doing that, I will just prevent the rules form being implemented in the first place.

The real world situation that we live in is that if I do not want to follow these rules, there is a perfectly easy way for them to be stopped. And the way for them to be stopped is to prevent the union from forming before they get any power over ms.

As most people in tech oppose unions, I do not just have to "deal with it". I can stop unions from having any power over my life at all by preventing their existence in the first place.

"So because you think you're a snowflake, you don't want things to improve for other people"

No, I'd be perfectly happy with people engaging in voluntary association if they didn't always inevitably end up trying to force me to join their special club.

As long as these people won't drop the whole "force everyone to join us" clause, I will continue to oppose them.

Fortunately, the pro union people are in the vast minority in tech, though, so there is not much to worry about yet.
