Everyone is free to choose their path.

Here is my thought process:

The recall of the NC was a late agenda item. That means they didn’t plan to discuss it ahead of time. Is it just me, or does that not strike you as a consequential decision? Wouldn’t it behoove the representatives to take the temperature of their constituents to see how they feel about it? And then return to the council for a vote? In my view, it was incumbent on the MEC chair to see that was a pivotal decision and table the matter for the MEC reps to deliberate the idea with those they represent. The fact that he didn’t shows a dramatic lack of discernment. But that is the charitable view. That it was just a lack of discernment. Which on its own is worthy of impeachment because it effectively disenfranchised anyone who had no idea this was even on the table. Are we democratic or not?

The more sinister option though is that he was in on some conspiracy to count votes behind the scenes and topple the NC Chair through a procedural mechanism that circumvents the will of the majority. What other reason is there not to shelve the idea and let the reps talk to their voting bloc? Maybe he doesn’t want to do what the voting blocs want? And how do we already have a new NC that just so happened to be the only negotiating committee member that wasn’t fired. I wouldn’t be surprised if AB wasn’t in on it. And if there was indeed something to be in on, then I’m sorry. I don’t trust you. I don’t trust any of you.

Speaking of which, why did LEC cancel their in person meeting in front of those they represent. The whole thing smells, and I want answers. If you can explain it, fine. I want a strong union. I’ll come back and support it. But until then, I’m out.
