Default Leadership by Hypocrisy?

You wouldn’t directly get in trouble for the speech, though the company could discipline you possibly.

What I’m saying is that the government made that speech an illegal job action. Before the RLA existed, it wasn’t illegal to say these certain things. So I don’t think it’s correct to say the first amendment doesn’t apply.

But I do concede that if the RLA didn’t exist, could theoretically fall under company rules that you could be disciplined. That would be the company punishing you, not the government. But the company would then not have a basis to get a judge’s order to subpoena social media, emails, texts, etc. in order to find those culpable of breaking their rules.
