You can’t touch a single police officer without them throwing a hissy fit and shutting everything down.

    I agree with you

    Most people won’t understand the difference or read your link

    Especially because “company” unions aren’t a thing in the civilised world

        It’s more that context is important. The thread is about “Police Unions”, so it’s not surprising that people would read “Company Union” as meaning a union at a commercial enterprise by contrast, rather than the highly specific and obscure 100-year-old definition that you’ve used that distinguishes a company union from a trade union.

        You can either prance about in the thread about how dumb everyone else is, or you could edit your original statement to clarify what you meant rather than throwing up a load of links.
