You can say thanks to the authors of the 2005 Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act. Amongst them being Senator Joe Biden. A bill that he defended back in 2020 during his campaign claiming that he “improved it”.
Both Republicans and Democrats want to have slaves, Dems just provide a longer leash.
I hope you all appreciate that Biden co-authored the bankruptcy bill that made it all possible.
That Pakistani flag is very ironic considering how Biden organized the coup there.
lmao his family “suffered” because his father was a fraudster that tried to get rich on scamming the US government during the war. The stories about his blue-collar roots are as real as Kim Jong Un inventing pizza.
And you know what should happen? There should be actual primaries. But they’re not even pretending at this point.
If you’re not in a swing state then your vote is about as valuable as spitting into a trashcan.
The fact that they’ve been running with one angle for some decades before it got exposed doesn’t mean they couldn’t have changed it. They’re not that stupid.
Why am I not surprised in the slightest.
And yes. All those propaganda efforts find very ripe ground with the imperial middle class. My favorite is how easily people fell for the idea of “supplier framework of greenhouse emissions” that makes it seem that it’s all some ten guys collectively emitting all the world’s carbon dioxide - simply because it exonerated all of the middle class’ senseless consumption. It doesn’t make sense under even the slightest scrutiny - but they simply don’t care. It makes them feel good about themselves so they swallow the propaganda; hook, line, sinker, pole.
I can assure you that after years of active engagement in politics in various forms I can differentiate between arguing and what is just using the privilege of entrenchment in the system to dismiss any opposing view as illegitimate.
Those people almost never engage with presented points. They prefer to construct their own strawman because then they can attack it with the well-hammered propaganda slogans. And if all else fails, there’s invariably someone to accuse anyone who is to the left of them as being either a trumpist or russian troll for a thunderous applause.
But how else can the corporate bureaucracy hold its grip on people otherwise? The metrics are as necessary as catehism for catholicism.
It would be funnier if both sides wouldn’t employ shamanism.
Yeah, in the last primaries he was the least inspired, least charismatic candidate. He had effectively no platform beyond keeping the status quo. He wasn’t the worst candidate only because the DNC, against its own rules, gave platform to an actual Republican billionaire.
It’s wild for me that people defend him before he even is a candidate.
Most of HR processes are pure ideological bullshit. “Personality tests” that are nothing else but “we search for obedient drones and here is our tarot to help” and “intelligence tests” that are based on some racial science bullshit made to prove the inferiority of Jews that might be useful only if you work in a factory of math patterns.
They are not there to ensure efficient production, after all they don’t know shit about the product or internal processes of the teams. They’re a caste of priests whose role is ensuring compliance with the feudal-corporate system.
Well, good news, US legislature managed to dismantle itself with all the “checks and balances” and liberum veto filibuster. Now it’s just a circus to play for the gullible to legitimize this oligarchic empire. It is no representation, one way or another and somebody should openly state it. The best the progressive caucus could do now is to walk out.
Have you thought about doing something else in your interest than just voting to legitimize your silly little empire?
Yeah, it’s absolutely ridiculous how easily people just accepted that primaries are just a joke, that the DNC can hold them when they want to and just decide on their own when they don’t. Telling people to vote for Biden now, when he is not yet by any stretch an official candidate, is to forfeit a democratic right. They openly say they’re ready to rubber-stamp a decision of party oligarchs.
Boring answer: I have basic art education from design studies so I had to draw quite a few still life arrangements with white cardboard. Beyond that I’ve been just sitting down with photos of old maps, including pre-digital National Geographic maps and trying my best to replicate them.
Yeah, sure, that’s why they had the police beat up protesters and journalists.
It’s not over as long as the working class exists. Capital owners have addresses.
Are you aware that Biden co-authored the bankruptcy bill that caused the entire student loan catastrophe?
And you’re telling me that both sides actually do the same thing for the climate (that is nothing), just one side has a better PR?
We don’t have time for the childish games of the oligarchs. Unless you realize that they all are your enemies and unless you organize in a unified front of the working class, it will all end in a catastrophe that will make WW II seem like a pleasant afternoon.
