I stand by the message that Buttigieg is more in touch with workers than Hillary. I'm not endorsing Pete for president or any other position and fuck you for implying this.

I was drafted in 1971. I never went anywhere either Vietnam or prison. I can thank all the protesters that preceded me for this. Call it what you want but doing nothing can be fatal.

There are and probably always will be workers that do not have union representation. Labor day is for them as well. And yes the socialist elites create unions.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.

The difference between these statements show how Mayor Pete is a man of the people, while Hillary is a woman of the elite. It's about workers, not the "labor movement" bsky.app/profile/hill...

On #LaborDay, we recognize the workers who make so much of our everyday lives possible. And every day, we should have American workers' back by supporting their organized efforts to secure higher wages, good benefits, and safe & dignified workplaces.

We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.

If the majority of a nation wants their representatives to stop arming a genocide but those representatives refuse, it means they are not afraid to lose votes. By voting for the "lesser evil" for decades you didn't honor the right to vote so many fought for, you devalued the only currency you had.

IMO gun suicides are indicative of the working class feeling hopeless against the wealthy. I wonder why there seems to be no studies looking for a connection between wealth and suicide?
Everytown for Gun Safety (@everytown.bsky.social) reposted
Gun suicide is a public health crisis that claims the lives of nearly 26,000 people in America each year. Too many people are dying preventable deaths because the most lethal method of suicide—guns—are far too easy to access in times of suicidal crisis.
Thakman (@thakman.bsky.social) reply parent
Not almost. Capitalist society is designed to have bosses and workers where the boss subjugates the worker for profit. That's why Capitalism must have government regulation aimed at supporting the workers or society will die an ugly death.

Offering flowers to the military during a protest gives a powerful message to the soldier and media. Peaceful protest works but it takes time, for example, nearly 20 years for the end of the Vietnam war. I'm fearful that America does not have that much time.
