That looks great.
Planning a general strike this far out will minimize it’s impact. That said let’s fucking go! It beats nothing and is a great opportunity for organizing the labor movement.
You realize criticism of the Democrats is exactly how we push them to change though right? Whatever stupid shit Trump or Republicans do does not absolve Biden or Democrats of criticism.
There was plenty of commentary about Trump but it was drowned out because Biden’s poor performance was different and new making it the trending and newsworthy story.
the media made him lose the debate, not his performance against someone who did worse.
I think you are missing how others are critical of Biden’s performance. This debate and election season was a repeat, absolutely nothing new. It was never going to move huge swaths from one side to the other.
Biden lost to himself, not to Trump. That doesn’t mean Trump’s performance was good. That absolutely was the biggest story coming out of the debate as that was something different from this rerun of an election.

Nah it’s afro-surrealism from Donald Glover.
It’s right up there with Atlanta for best TV in the last decade.
How can you crush on anyone when Zahn McClarnon is right there?
Nah, that just takes power away from working people. Organize militant committees within the union for the sole purpose of getting working politics into leadership positions. That is the play.
You called the write up pretty good, idk man I was just responding to the information provided. Not really putting words in anyone’s mouth but my own.
Oh man that post is a hot mess. Comparing energy used by a human to AI? Guess we don’t need all those artists, better round em up and eliminate them because of some reddit math.
Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a USA to invade the USA and spread some of that sweet sweet democracy I am always hearing about?
Chances of Macron considering courting the far right to avoid concessions to the left and the people’s will?
I’m pretty sure the him he was referring to was the reporter, meant as a quip. But… like… to just walk off the stage at that point and not have any kind of follow up is just awe striking regardless of who he was actually talking about. This was a press conference to validate his competency and to run away when called out on such a big mistake and pointing out how Trump is using it, with a quote that can be so misinterpreted… I’m at a loss for words.
This is why American politics are so fucked. We can’t even have a discussion about how we ended up in this position by looking back 9 years. How in the hell can we put context to what happened to the labor movement in the 1950s and how it applies to modern day struggles if we have to be so tunnel visioned into right now? How can we examine why the BLM protests fizzled with only a few cities making minor material changes, when the activism of the civil rights movement lasted over a decade?
This isn’t whining, this is looking at the context of the current moment and urging people to do something other than vote. Vote or don’t vote I honestly don’t care at this point, all I could do was laugh at the news today everything is so absurd, but if you’re out here and the only thing you’re doing is voting and urging others to do the same you’re apart of the punchline.
The democratic party pushed a narrative that Bernie was unelectable and instead pushed a candidate that refused to even campaign in important states. When the truth was Bernie polled better against Trump than Clinton.
Trump won.
The democratic party chose Biden not because he could beat Trump (votes were always going to be anti-Trump), but instead picked Biden because he could beat Bernie.
Biden’s Justice department dragged it’s feet to prosecute Trump in the hope that they could wait until election season and use his trials to stir up media coverage. We now live in a country that will continue to ride along the cliffside as every election will be democrats or else and they won’t clean house because they view it as politically advantageous. And this has all happened because the most mild version of socialist policy was being discussed at the national level.
But don’t “question” it.
say what.
