Even making a post as an individual on a web board could cause problems for the union.

it appears as if we may have favorable conditions under which to negotiate the new contract. Hopefully we don’t blow it again.

In Spirit's case it was the pilots no longer flying Open Time assignments at the same frequency that they did previously (A change of the Status Quo).
Posts on APC were also used frequently during the court hearing.
United did it as well:

Contacting other pilots, or naming names, can get you fired or forced into retirement.
It's not the SCAB clicker era anymore. Now it's creating a hostile work environment and I don't think there's a Union that can save you from a complaint submitted to management.
The best protection should FedEx come looking for hostages is a long history of not working extra. In general, if I get bumped for training I might look for something to fill that gap. But I'd rather go to the hotel in Memphis than suck up a 2 or 3 leg night.
