Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign

So the bolded isn't wrong it is just not good enough for you. Just say that instead of being wrong on purpose. The White House claim isn't why I gave credit to Biden. The union gave Biden credit. It's in the article. If I were to guess it would be in every article I would look up over this specific...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign

So a few things. I specifically said my position on Biden hasn't changed. The thing you posted about the union not wanting to give up their right to strike does not counter the fact that they got concessions, ones the union agreed to that are talked about in the article I posted, and I don't know w...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign

Apparently Biden did something more for the railway workers after he shut down their attempt at a strike and from what little I've heard it has been in their interest. It was done quietly and the only reason I know that something happened is because of the media I consumed but it was something. I d...

Re: Biden Announces Reelection Campaign

Symbolic gestures are worth nothing. Remember when the Democrats all wore kente cloth and kneeled, and then immediately began funding the police even more so they can better murder people of color? I'll believe Biden supports unions when he starts actually supporting unions. It is always good optics...

The police are really gambling on this. If you make donating to bail funds punishable in the same way burning a cop car is punishable you're going to see a lot more burned cop cars. Also, if you make it clear that doing legal things (like donating to bail funds or handing out pamphlets and zines) wi...

I don't disagree, I just don't see why jail wouldn't be a part of the punishment and rehabilitation of a serial child exploiter.

There are better ways to fix the problem of child labor then jail! You can simply take away their ability to employ people by seizing their company! If they don't have a company, they can't hire children. Fixing problems instead of punishing them, ect. Taking away power would be better, that's true...

Re: Stupid NY politics

It's not cheating if my side does it, and if Eric Adams was on your side you'd think it was fine for him to do fraud. /s

We probably should have laws against committing campaign finance fraud to steal money from the public. That seems like it's more serious than, say, stealing a TV from a Target.
