They have been bombing tent camps since October. Why would they do it? Because they literally don’t care, they wear Antisemitism as a shield.

It was described 6 comments above yours.

Rapidcreek was attempting to make the case that working class conditions are stable and rising. His points of union gains ignore vast swaths of people’s material reality. Unions gaining ground in the past year is a great point, one I am not denying, however those gain are a very small fraction of the already small fraction of unionized workers.

Many of the contracts left many workers out of improvements. The UPS contract won by Teamsters for example was very vocal about how it ended a two tier pay scale system, but in reality it just created a new one for part time workers hired after the contract was signed. That’s not to diminish from the gains made, but UPS’s current model requires a huge segment of their work force to be part time, as they have high volume rush periods where inbound/outbound needs to be recieved/shipped quickly as their floor space cannot accommodate the volume. Those part time workers are essential so why should they be payed at a lower scale than full time employees? Many of those part time workers aren’t as involved in union organizing and Teamsters have done a poor job bringing them into the fold, so when they vault their 85% approval of the contract, they neglect to mention what percentage didn’t participate.

That is one example of how many of the gains won aren’t what they appear at face value. Mainstream media also does a poor job reporting these nuances in labor fights. So again yes things are improving, but definitely not for everyone and it’s not the rosy picture Rapidcreek was trying to paint.

Dare ya to watch 1 minute.

“Rejecting” someone you probably agree with because you can’t take a second to understand their position.

Noice.

Did you even watch 1 minute of the video?

Yes but when union membership is only at 10% what impact are you really talking about nationwide?

You’re speaking as if the majority of American workers are in a union.

There are more 25 million kids coming of age in the following decade. 500,000 doesn’t even scratch the surface of housing needs, it’s doing something sure but I am not going to praise the man for doing below the bare minimum.

You’re once again looking at this in a vacuum.

Biden doesn’t even acknowledge the current issues with the way our economy is structured as evident by this article.

That’s all great in a vacuum, but when you add in housing costs suddenly none of those gains are enough.

The way Biden views the economy is not how working people are impacted.

Don’t give him braiding ideas.

“War against Hamas”

You won’t care though you’re deeply entrenched in propaganda. Biden isn’t pushing Isreali policy with this criticism, within 24 hours he claimed he is a zionist.

How is this knocking it out of the park?

17,177 Palestinians would have something to say if they still could.

How has that diplomacy worked out the past 80 years?

It’s wild people are so ignorant to how our economic system works and how our government is entwined in it. Then again,

looks around

no, shit, that actually explains alot.

“I can give up fossil fuels, or I can stop slaughtering innocents but fuck you if you want both.”

The driving force of climate change is the same reason for the military industrial complexe. Profits over people will always lead to these outcomes. You gotta be able to acknowledge and discuss this stuff.
