Yea, so anyone here want to tell me again why tech doesn't need a union? Seems like this all could have been fought back to some degree if coworkers had each other's backs (ie, their own voice).

Because Twitter employees are well compensated and can apparently just quit and be fine
This, but unironically... Has there ever been a union for those making 200k+?
Cops, firefighters, dock workers, harbor pilots, actors, nurses, etc
OK, I'll bite: cops make 200k+ in the states?
In major cities yes, SFPD for example starts just over $100k base and you can rack up a lot of overtime.
