Right to work laws say you have to a right to work or not work.

That is why they are called right to work laws, and this is why the parent is making that observation, as NCA's are antithetical to right to work.

Maybe trying reading in to things a bit more rather then jumping to the wrong conclusion?

No, they mean employees have a choice to join a union or not (ie. pay union dues or not.)

In other words, they're a legal tool to weaken unions by reducing their membership and revenue.
