  • Trump: We didn't pay anything for the stock.

    I'll always continue to be amazed at how stupid he, and the general public that supports him are.

  • Time for wildcat strikes to come back. The reason the federal government officially recognized unions, was because wildcat strikes were too powerful. They pretended to make concessions while stopping the thing they feared.

  • Sure, the Wikipedia article is about the United States Consumer Price Index, which is not the same as inflation.

  • I'm guessing most people don't know food price isn't calculated into inflation in the U.S.

  • The wikipedia article says thousands of students did die at these schools and are buried in unmarked graves.

    There have been bodies found at some sites, but there's a site where the native population claimed there was a mass grave and no bodies have been found yet.

    The Catholic church ran a massive ad campaign about this one site to try to push the narrative that no bodies has been found anywhere.

  • Not the person who replied, but I think they asking will the utility be forgotten? Or will the fact that it was re-written in rust be forgotten?

  • Striking helps, solidarity striking helps more, but wildcat strikes are the best.

    If you haven't heard of them, they're the reason the U.S. federal government started to recognize unions, but gave the caveat that unions had to announce they would strike.

    With wildcat strikes, there's no announcement, you just do it. It fucked with the upper class so much they recognized unions to outlaw wildcat striking.

  • I think the big issue with centrists is they pay absolutely no attention to what's really happening, but wear the term "centrist" like a badge of honor.

    So on one end we have Nazis, and the other end we have Democrats who are mostly Center-Right, and then the centrists try to find the middle of that but not having any idea if what that means.

    And then we keep getting the enshitification of the U.S.

  • The DNC wants status quo, not change.

  • It's always projection with the right wing. Whatever they're doing, or issues they have, say the left is doing it and has those issues.

  • Much like the mass shootings in the U.S., there's literally no solution for this. /s

  • Leopards have to eat too.

  • I worry that people aren't leaning. The wealth gap has been steadily getting worse since Reagan was in office, with Republicans and Democrats.

    Reagan had an advisor that basically said you can't say ni**er anymore, so you have to use coded language when talking to white people.

    Hillary Clinton coined the term "super predators", so it's not just a Democrat/Republican issue.

    People either have to accept that they'll do better when everyone does better, or just keep licking the boot that's on their neck.

    I worry they'll just keep licking.

  • "The audit found California spent $24 billion to tackle homelessness over the previous five years but did not consistently track whether the outlay actually improved the situation. In Los Angeles, county and city officials have also moved to take control of an agency that oversees homeless funding after audits found the agency spent money recklessly."

    I'm all for getting people into permanent housing instead of living tents. But when you piss away 24 billion that was supposed to do just that, there's going to be a lot of people who don't want to fund it anymore.

    I still think it should be funded, but I don't know what the best solution is to make sure the money is used appropriately.

  • The issue I see with those 2 is no one wanted Hillary, and she basically bought off the DNC to get the nomination. Kamala was thrown into the race way too late. Joe should've said right away he wasn't looking for a 2nd term and immediately start pushing Kamala.

    Democratic leadership just shoots themselves in the foot, and then blames voters.

  • On the one hand, trying to have a 3rd party right now just splits the vote. But in the other hand, the current Democratic leadership is old people who grift as much as Republicans, but aren't pushing fascism. It's a shit show.
