Circulating a letter that levels accusations against the CEO for racism or other political wrongthink is not protected conduct.
Come on, don't be ridiculous. The NLRB is operating a farce with this suit. They're used to companies negotiating and not fighting. Their position here is untenable.

Maybe - I guess the courts will have to decide. But courts also regularly rule that complaining about you boss isn't a valid reason for dismissal - the only difference here is whether doing it on such a wide scale and in this way is or isn't acceptable.
I wouldn't call it a farce at all - I think neither one of us can predict what the court will rule here.
Well, there we differ. If employees can't be prevented from harassing other employees with open letters casting aspirations at each other then it would be impossible to operate a functioning company.
