> . .. Amazon believed the best workplace was "one where associates have direct input and we work together to make progress quickly, and where nobody should have to pay dues or go through a third party to be heard."

Well they weren’t heard before passing the dues clearly or they wouldn’t have voluntarily started paying dues before the union was even recognised!
