This community forum is a shared space and saying anything you wouldn’t say to someone’s face is not appropriate. However, disagreeing and having a difference of opinion is OK IF you are here to help us promote democratic workplaces. Ultimately, we want to promote workplace democracy and facilitate the cooperative movement while avoiding unnecessary conflict.
