Pretty straightforward. I've been a steady Beyond subscriber for 5 years, and have purchased a bunch of books and stuff. Unfortunately, I'm also a union man, so I can't support a company that meets organizing efforts with resistance.
Recognize your union and give them a fair contract, or you will lose my support as a customer. That's all. I don't need D&D Beyond to play D&D. I could actually play D&D for the rest of my life and never spend a dime on another Wizards product.
While I can't fault the sentiment, this is probably not the most effective channel to use for sending messages, particularly since the union effort appears to be in the MtG division.
I disagree. I think a company needs to be made to understand how union resistance efforts, even for one product in a portfolio, has ripple effects with its customer base across all divisions. And I deem a forum thread that can presumably have others chime in to be a more effective method of communicating that than, say, sending an email into the void.

Effective messaging requires the target of the messaging to actually receive the message.
This isn't reddit. And outside of a mod or a community manager, I doubt anyone who makes real decisions sees the proclivities of this forum beyond a very small and localized datapoint. We are traditionally not a statistically significant sample size.
That said, go off. Having employees see that they are supported across multiple channels is a morale booster if nothing else.

So upvote the thread.
