If you understood basic economics you would see that this is a tactical approach to getting our elected leaders to do what needs to be done. I have something they want/need. They have the power to affect change the way that me and a lot of other people want. Its called bargaining. If they want what we have, our consent, then they have to earn it. Don't they like to call this country a meritocracy? We know they won't keep their promises after they get our vote. they don't need us after that so why would I so easily give up the only bargaining chip I have when there is no sign they will perform
You still honestly think this wouldn’t have happened if a bunch of kids didn’t pout and whine on the internet?
100,000 people in michigan is just a bunch of kids whining and pouting on the internet? good try at badjacketing though.
and its not stopping. in washington the UFCW 3000 are endorsing uncommitted in the primary. so working class union members are whiny pouty children? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/washington-s-largest-labor-union-endorses-uncommitted-primary-vote-in-rebuke-to-biden/ar-BB1jaQPE I'll save you a click:
None of that matters when you understand that this was already going to happen regardless. Just like how Israel was going to attempt/commit genocide regardless of what Biden did.
Most people know that with all things- there something called “nuance.”
We’re done here. I’m not arguing with you about this.
We sanctioned russia for what they did in Ukraine. Personally, I am disgusted but not surprised that we are actively funding this genocide with our taxpayer dollars. Genocide is being done in our name. I'm not about that and i don't most americans are either.
Most people don't want to be a party to genocide. If you do, you can give money directly to israel if you want but we will keep pushing the issue that we shouldn't be paying for ethnic cleansing, genocide, coups, and all the other shit that this govt gets up to. Its not like any of that is new either. America was originally a colonial project just like israel.
Cool false accusations there bud. No genocide is being done in our name whatsoever. Most Americans know this.
Don’t bother responding. Blocking you as you have nothing to say that I’ll need to know.
