Sick leave was one thing, but if you did any actual digging past what the media was telling you and listen to the workers then you would of known that sick leave was the bare minimum and they barely got that and it was pathetic. Look if you are not a sea lion and actually give a shit then go listen to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=69A_UCdikE8

Cause I’m not going to sit here and type out a novel of all the problems.

If you really can’t wrap your brain around that Palestine was warned about before it happened and the delay of and the eventual shit deal, was part of it. Then you need to go educate yourself on working class history and how laws are written in blood in captalism. Like, i don’t know what to tell you at this point. The deal was shit. Palestine is on Bidens hands especially after he shook hands with the literal barons. It’s not rocket science.

Train workers, and before you push the whole “but they made a deal recently!” that deal was fucking pathetic and does NOTHING to address the infrastructure issues, and the fact that they are going to try and reduce workers down to 1. At best all it did was let the shitty horrible train infrastructure limp along. I fucking listened to workers whistleblowing for months and it will always fucking enrage me that Palestine did not have to fucking happen. That is on Biden’s and the dems hands. You vote for the dems cause you don’t have a fucking choice and if you are fortunate enough to live in a situation that you CAN vote (cause the dems do nothing about gerrymandering and other voting issues ) you pinch your nose, vote dem, and then if you actually care about fixing anything, you go back to organizing and building local community. Cause no one else is going to help us, let alone save us. In the words of Robert Evans, I vote just in the weird off chance it fucking does something. I never expect anything good to come federally and it keeps me grounded and able to do actual work. Fuck biden and any of the other west wing brain rot fuckers that is the establishment dems.

speaking honestly here, good for you! That can be a hard thing to pull yourself out of. I’m glad you were able to do it.

1. fascism. 2. gerrymandering, and constant attacks to peoples voting rights.

They never cared. As an org, it’s always been about the illusion of progress. They want the Republicans to exist because they themselves exist by getting donations off of the fear-mongering. If they actually cared, the Republicans would of been routed a long time ago. Especially now, they are (or at least was a few months ago the last i checked in) Horribly disorganized and eating their own left and right. I’m pretty sure this isn’t the first instance that the dems could of cleaned shopped. There are just so many other things that prove that they dont’ want things to actually change given they always choose the worst possible way to try and tackle a problem despite constant criticism. It works though, they get hordes of liberals who will come to their defense of “well do you want trump to win?! They did everything they could!”. Cause it’s easier to believe the lies than that we don’t have anyone but each other and shit is going to get worse before it gets better if we don’t collectively do something with direct action… Sorry for the soap box, didn’t start that way. TL;DR we need more than voting and i strongly recommend organizing and building a community. Unionize, etc.
