Maybe because they keep firing union organizers?

When two companies not on the verge of bankruptcy merge, do you also "question if there's a genuine need" for the merger? Or is it only when labor organizes that they have to justify it to some arbitrary 'house of horrors' standard, while capital can organize and consolidate as it wishes, and face no criticism?

According to Kickstarter: "On retaliation: In May, 28 staff members put their names on a statement supporting the union efforts. Fifteen of those staff members were on a cycle that made them eligible for mid-year raises or promotions. Fourteen out of those 15 received a merit-based raise, and three were promoted. That’s not the behavior of a company that is looking to punish union supporters."

You're right - out of the many anti-union activities mentioned in your link, that one data point isn't anti-union.
