The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), led by its "DEI-crazed HR department", has sparked controversy by firing an Asian female employee over what it deemed a racist joke and her expressed fear of her black boss, specifically for saying "the beatings will continue until morale improves" and suggesting it's racist to say you're "afraid". The incident escalated when the ACLU argued against the employee's appeal to President Biden's National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), suggesting that the NLRB is unconstitutional and advocating for arbitration, which critics argue undermines organized labor. This move has drawn criticism from various quarters, with commentators accusing the ACLU of acting contrary to its foundational principles and attempting to weaken the Biden NLRB, thus potentially impacting workers' rights and union organizing negatively.
ACLU Worked To Undermine Biden’s Labor Board To Defend Firing Employee Over Racism Accusations https://t.co/4CDk7QdgE3
Terrifying activist antagonist who was traveling under color of DOJ https://t.co/qajOIiizRn
As an employer, the ACLU is engaging in a legal fight that could make worker organizing more difficult. It’s hard to imagine that donors to the organization want to see it use their money to undermine workers’ rights like this. https://t.co/GNAjSZx6Ju
The progressive ACLU is trying to establish a precedent that would strike a huge blow against workers’ rights across the country and make union organizing much more difficult. Let’s hope the organization comes to its senses soon. https://t.co/GNAjSZwyTW
Lmao an Asian woman at the ACLU complains ‘the beatings will continue until morale improves’ and is then fired for being racist. This ACLU/ NLRB kerfuffle is amazing and this couldn’t be happening to a worse org than the ACLU. https://t.co/sK9brISBNu https://t.co/DFp8AcD2WR

The ACLU Is Trying to Destroy the Biden NLRB https://t.co/0frRFvlcn4
Lost in much of the commentary on this today is the actual underlying conduct that got this ACLU employee tarred as a racist and fired. Complete lunacy https://t.co/3ORwuEBMZ5 https://t.co/0BYVGemjQo
Why you should love wokeness. ACLU fires an Asian female for a "racist" joke and being afraid of her black boss. She goes to Biden's NLRB to appeal, ACLU tries to argue for arbitration, in effect undermining organized labor. I hope the left stays like this forever. https://t.co/tNEGTksAUj
I thought @MattBruenig's description of this ACLU firing sounded too deranged to be true, but I checked the transcript -- the ACLU really did argue it's racist to say you're "afraid" to raise concerns with your boss, if your boss is black. https://t.co/LrxMRc86NO https://t.co/eI38me8zLj
The ACLU seems committed to doing exactly the opposite of what its name implies. https://t.co/9FWYZX7POm
Hilarious. "DEI-crazed HR department" leads ACLU to violate worker rights and then when caught doubles down by arguing that the NLRB is (currently) unconstitutional! https://t.co/Zy67BpVtcd
