    whether this works still remains to be seen

    Labor has been winning in a big way since Biden came in, including both many strikes and many legal battles. Legal battles means forcing union elections at the UAW, or fighting court battles whether the strikes are legal (which for some fuckin reason is a thing in the US) for example. It doesn’t remain to be seen whether it’ll work; it already has been happening.

    i dont think the more open fascim republicans plan have will change anything for us until the international correlation of power changes

    You do understand that giving an opinion on the US election, but following it up with saying but that’s only the US, so even if millions suffer or die there it doesn’t really impact me here in Brazil… that isn’t gonna convince me as a US voter to obey your way of looking at the election here?

    This is one reason, but by far not the only reason, that it’s weird that I’m running into so many people on Lemmy who have strong opinions on the US election (and always in the direction of not voting for Biden) who follow it up with, oh by the way I’m not even from the US, I just have super strong opinions about the election there.

    strong unions are something that would 100% definetly push back but with bidens move to deflate the most important one at the time

    I feel like you probably haven’t been reading my links about what Biden has been doing with unions and labor, and just know that one example that everyone knows and likes bringing up.

      i’m not looking for anyone to obey me, i don’t think i’ve implied you should vote for anyone specific.

      i’m just talking about it with you, vote for whoever you want.
