I thought this was against the law?

Amazon denied that they were doing it as a company (of course they did).

Luckily, the union won this election and it was certified in january of this year

100% they did.

Passive posters like this aren't. Actively intimidating potential members is. And interfering with a vote is super illegal.

But posters aren't.

As long as you don't get caught, there's no one to blame. That's what they do.

There's nothing illegal about putting up a poster with nonsense on it. People like to over react on those. Putting up a question isn't Union busting.

In the UK, any prejudice towards union activities is illegal.

As a business owner, you could say "I don't like unionism" etc. But you couldn't ask your employees to grass up fellow colleagues for talking about unionism.

Yup, pretty much the same here. Most of the things that people flip out about are super vague, harmless, and wouldn't convince anybody of anything.
