  • Tell me you’re not a pregnant woman who needs obstetric care of any kind or a capitol policeman or trans or Hispanic or a person who’s trying to get sick days from their union or a Ukrainian

    Dems can’t fix that or they won’t be able to run on it anymore. They have plenty of opportunities especially the super majority under Obama.

    Yes, everyone knows that simply not consenting to the system suddenly makes it go away.

    Never made that argument, bad gaslighting attempt. Green part hits even 5% and Dems start doing what you want.

    If only the civil rights movement had been privy to this knowledge

    This actually goes against your argument, civil violence was the only reason anything happened for that movement, and you’re advocating for voting for Dems and not getting in the streets.






  • Cherry picked chart, also wealth inequality is more important. You misunderstood my previous comment, Clinton was not good on inequality, it was the opposite. He started the trend of abandoning workers with NAFTA and it’s gotten worse ever since. It was the Dems before him that were decent. Those Dems are long gone now.

    Look at what you’re trying to celebrate with that article:

    Bunny White, 65, is a cashier at pro sports stadiums in New Orleans. She was part of a movement at her workplace to form a union, and they secured their first contract in early April. The result? Her pay will go from $12.50 an hour to $16 an hour, she said. To help pay her bills, she has a second job at a private catering company and also occasionally drives for Uber or Lyft, or delivers meals for DoorDash. Now, she said, she has more flexibility to take time off.

    Living paycheck to paycheck still, no future for them, even stating they would need more raises to have savings. All of this is irrelevant considering how bad wealth inequality is.

    It’s getting worse because of the Dems shift to neoliberalism, there is no counter to Republicans economic policy. Only way to stop it is to not vote for them and instead express democracy and vote for a candidate that has decent economic policy.
