Americans still aren’t ready for a true unifier

I believe the regulatory power of the NLRB has expanded some during his tenure. At the same time, however, Biden heavy-handedly intervened in the rail strike, the Federal Reserve has manipulated interest rates to “discipline labor”, and Biden’s sanctions and tariffs exploit rifts in the international solidarity of workers while failing to substantially increase production or employment domestically. The Juduciary are also making moves to weaken the NLRB and other regulatory bodies, and the Executive and Congress are not using their substantial powers to stand up to them.

The claims are cherry-picked bullshit, is what I’m saying

Cast it into the fire! Destroy it!

28% of an oligarch’s flesh can be lethal if it’s the right cut.

Oh, it’s not a tax in kind? Never mind then.

I took the RISK of investing in making workers build the unicycle profit scooper

I’m surprised they’re even testing, much less made people mask after a positive. On brand for neoliberals to take half-measures too late but only because it’s an investment on the line

Hitler Reacts to Biden Dropping Out

Yes, and you say the Democratic Party considers this election the most important of our lifetimes despite the fact that the wavering in the party is obviously top-down

Plastics are a byproduct of fossil fuel production, and it was and is inevitable (under capitalism) that the overproduction of plastic would lead to the manufactured demand for massive amounts of plastic goods. There was a major marketing push in the 1950s to sell consumers on the disposability of plastic, to create further demand by erasing their Great Depression/wartime-era habits of saving and reusing. There are many examples of successful campaigns to put the masses on cheap garbage, like corn syrup, that people would not have been drawn to spontaneously. These things work.

Fossil fuel companies are major centers of political power, with deep military-industrial ties, easily acquiring politicians and regulators, and encircling any stubborn holdouts. Something major would have to displace them to free up the kind of political oxygen needed for any serious effort to end plastic’s invasive presence in our lives.

A decolonial not-for-profit military answerable to a socialist state could dislodge them, and I don’t think anything less could.

The last pretenses of an alliance with labor have lost their credibility, it’s past time the parties be depicted as the two internal combustion cylinders on a drive shaft that only spins to the right

US thought their bombs would somehow work better than the Saudi force’s bombs (which were bought from the US)

High Schoolers Tout Anti-Snitching Program Encouraging Stuffing Kamala Harris Into A Locker

As an xennial, I’m permanently astonished that the youth who came after us retvrned to giant boomer glasses. Maybe the kids are not alright

A failure to address the affordability crisis plaguing housing in the U.S. will mean young people, who “already feel disenfranchised,” according to Zandi, will lose faith in the economy and take their frustrations out on President Joe Biden come election day.

It’s maddening, this constant assumption that Biden wants to win the votes of the masses. He has delivered his true constituents a feast of war and austerity. What’s left of Biden will die satisfied that he lived to serve his class.
