I am definitely not a liberal
Out of curiosity, what do you consider yourself?
Well this is probably the only time I defended Biden. Usually I want to quit my job and molotov government buildings. But I usually vote democrat while wishing there was a laborers party in the US. So left somewhere.
In that case, maybe stick around and you might learn something about what we believe!
Maybe read some theory — you might end up agreeing with it!
Tianamen square wasn't real. Only theory matters, never look at real things.
Like I'm not already a socialist, mate. Bunch a crabs in a bucket right here.
I am not trying to pile on, genuinely curious about your perspective as a socialist.
I don't think many people around here have an issue with strategic voting alongside actual organizing and support. The way you worded your first comment sounded like uncritical support for Biden/Democrats in regard to their rail union 'achievements'. From later comments it doesn't sound like that is what you intended, but I am struggling to understand why they deserve any credit. Even from the article you posted, they removed the only actual leverage the workers have, then after significant public pressure, helped avert further unrest by convincing the companies to give less than 50% of the workers 3 or 4 days of paid sick leave a year. I don't see anything laudable here. (And for the absolute idiots, [email protected], I agree 4 sick day more gooder than 0 sick day).
I only said that because I had just lurked another article that seemed trust worthy and I hate both sides people. I think voting needs restructuring, education needs more funding in the public sector, and the US needs some damn social safety nets. But seeing as I don't think we'll ever see that I tend to settled for booing and anarchist fantasies.
I feel like they brought light too it because the article I posted was afterwards and mentioned pressure from the public. I think its a good thing, even if Biden fucked it in an unimaginable way. Because it brought awareness and people need to realize our power is each other. Get together, get angry, and go put pressure on injustices. I believe just the press around that entire event helped further that end. Even if it wasn't by the President's hand (it should have). I think we need a Laborer's Party here. Increasingly moreso every year.
So yeah, he didn't do what he was supposed to. But it ended up banding people together to do something and thats what we need everywhere right now. On so many issues.
Maybe I misread my article, but in the end I just want to see the people band together to punch The Man in the face and take our lives back from corporations. Thats my final summarized stance. We live in this way because of them.
so you're just a socdem.....
Idk man, I dont think CEOs and shit should exist. I think Laborers should own the value they produce. If that makes me a socdem then I guess.
sorry, its just absolutely hard to imagine you being a socialist when you're here complementing and defending the democRATS.
Yeah? Once in my original comment? Ok
"But I usually vote democrat while wishing there was a laborers party in the US."
Okay
