Unity UFT leadership’s attempt to shut down UFT members’ free speech was thwarted in domain dispute as Alicea, pro-se, beats back corporate lawyers seeking to take over uftmembers.org domain
Will this decision be published in the UFT monthly news letter?
Shouldn’t the members know how their dues are being used?
If the UFT is really concerned about infringement shouldn’t the newsletter be used to disclaim that it is not the official site? Wouldn’t that clarify the issue rather than suing a member?
What is Randi Weingarten’s position on suppressing political speech from her own members?
I thought she was an advocate for free speech but it appears there are exceptions if they involve Unity.
First of all, the fact that they even did this is so disturbing. Michael Mulgrew cannot tolerate any type of questioning to his leadership. Congratulations on your victory!
I am very glad to see this important victory! I am also angry that member dues were used to pay what are likely high-priced lawyers, without exaggeration, to try and impose the evils of censorship and suppression of dissent. The $ should come out of Mulgrew's pocket. Can the UFT President be impeached or recalled?
So Keith, suppress what? Misrepresenting a faction as the entity might get all of us in hot water.
I can imagine the dear hearts of ABC who stake a claim on a corporate name, the body of our union, in some nightmare future you, Keith, and I, Dana, cannot foresee, offending by slander me or you, Keith. Can’t happen? Requisite high ground maintained could by a claim founded in narcissism, yea?

This is BIG on many levels!! Thank you and congratulations Daniel !! #WeAreUnion
Congratulations Daniel!! We, who voted for ABC, are proud of you.
So Dana what is Unity about :suppression of speech.
So what is Randi Weingarten about: suppression of speech.
Absolute power leads to absolute corruption.
The Dear Leader and the Great Leader are about suppression of speech
Horrific and wrong.
Why didn’t the Unity members report this: that is the question Weingarten and Mulgrew and Barr should be asking that question to their members!

Weingarten and Mulgrew can’t monopolize and control speech Dana.
That is what North Korea does. Thai is what Russia does. That is what they are afraid of.
This is not about protecting the good name of the UFT. It is about protecting their power.
Requisite high ground: really. Was that demonstrated in the urinals at the UFT Headquarters?
That was awful. Prankster-level, and, apparently, not yet attributable…only males may take that low (stream) “credit.” A-hem.
Congratulations!
It’s show, show, show.
The ability to own representations as shallow as the votes gained in an election.
And a slew of howaboutisms, as in “Let’s play power!”
ABC was about what, now?
Dont' you agree that mocking makes the mocker feel empty and make the mistake that more mocking will make one feel better instead of worse.
ABC is about this:
