Scratch anything without first being given permission by a liberal, and two fascists bleed 🤔

“Hey there fledgling leftist who is asking to be propagandized, unfortunately I do not deem your question worthy of my time, please go read CNN instead”

Is the painfully dumb to me sorry. Simply saying nothing would be a significant improvement. In a normal discussion, sure. This is not a normal discussion, it’s 101 for a reason I feel like I am taking crazy pills here it’s like some people are actively hostile to the idea of growing leftism, which has always been true, but also they decide to hang out in a place called ‘communism 101’ for some fking reason

The people who own these companies ARE THE BOSSES that the actors are striking against!

Lib news is fine if you know what you are looking for. If you are asking “is the actor strike good” you don’t know what to look for.

You’re gonna get “both sides make good points” from lib news on that. So why tell newbies they should go read that instead of us? It’s pointlessly hostile, spiting ourselves for no reason

Ok great yeah please go listen to the mainstream media to get your understanding of labor action 😵‍💫

This is a question that a lot of less politically conscious people have, the answer is obvious if you know it, this place should be for sharing that information with people who are seeking it. Introductory info, 101, no??

Please do the bare minimum of research

What do you think they’re doing by posting in communism 101?

I have been without power in Springfield IL since Thursday afternoon, I am ready to burn down the entire state lol. I imagine publicly owned utilities work a lot better when they’re properly funded and staffed 🙃

Agree with this as well - lots of people way smarter than the dem consultants running the white house have been saying they should use the HEA from the beginning. Especially because part of that legal path is a comments period that will take a long time. A long time that runs directly into the election, just another instance of Dems causing more political problems for themselves.

In reality though, laws are just words on paper. Standing, limits on judicial review, all this stuff only means anything if we all agree that it does. If (when) the court completely violates these previously held rules (nobody can stop them truly, see this completely fake gay discrimination case they ruled on if the student loans doesn’t convince you), Biden has to either meet the challenge head on or save face while taking the L. He’s already pre-empted today’s ruling by saying that he would never “politicize the court” lol, so we know what his take is, and that is shared near universally among the people with pull inside the pary.

Political power springs from the ba…err from the bang of a gavel? Way less scary than growing from a gun, we hate those here

As always respect to the French for at least trying to fight back, as long as that tradition is alive then they also have hope

Yeah agree, but they intentionally chose a long and winding path to get it done, one which allowed republicans to file an inevitable legal challenge. Undoubtedly this wasn’t literally purely to sell out student debtors (i.e. me) for just pure malice, but instead they were thinking this is a nice middle path where we’re not too radical but also standing by our commitment (a commitment that itself was a climb down from his previous commitments).

The effect, however, is the same. The best path was to immediately forgive the debt and force the court to claw it back, rather than to just nullify something that didn’t truly exist yet. They chose this path knowing this was the likely outcome, but preferred it to something more radical that had a higher chance of success. I am not clear on the legal (let alone extra legal) paths available if the court is truly determined to even claw back the money, but they haven’t been playing to win from the start.

Because when you have a bourgeois class of elected officials, consultants, lobbyists, and various other hangers on, they lose 100% of whatever genuine enthusiasm and connection they had to the rank and file of the party. It’s no different than the SPD in 1915, only even less radical and more doomed to fail

You should check out the podcast ‘blowback’, their last season was all about the Korean war. Over ten hours of great, us-critical (i.e. fair) history and unlike their other two seasons I was shocked by how little of this stuff I remembered/was taught in school

Douglas macarthur was a crazy motherfucker lol

No strike through is some damn bs isn’t it? Lmao I didn’t realize how much I used it til I quit reddit
