At this point, I want it to get worse. It isn't going to get better until all the comfortable trash becomes uncomfortable. Even that could be wrong, though. The whites destroyed the labor movement in the US because it was more important to them to continue being racist and upholding race based power structures than to actually achieve their goals against the state that was gunning them and their families down, sometimes in their homes. We ended up with very little and a fucking holiday that most of us that actually perform labor have to work while the class traitors above us get the day off.

I didn't have healthcare in 2024 either. And it was Democrats who caved agter the 2025 elections to allow the government to reopen without getting the Republicans to extend the subsidies. The Democrats also don't care if you can get healthcare and that's the problem.

Harris was going to solve everything! Just like Biden and Obama before her, can't you see! 🙄
