has the minimum wage gone up?
did workers get more rights?
when did we get that universal healthcare?
neither the Democrats nor the Republicans support workers
The min wage last went up under Dems. Yes, worker rights have expanded under Dems. Yes, Dems kneecapped themselves by taking a public option out of the ACA but at least they got super close, unlike the GOP, whose best claim to policy change on healthcare was that dramatic moment when McCain stopped them from repealing the ACA.
One party wants granny to die from pre-existing conditions, the other isn’t quite left enough for you.
Quit defending your fucking warden, wage slave. You're even speaking for them.
The Dems were the stop-gap measure, not our personal opinions. They're corporate Democrats. They protect their own, not us. They'll take us with them if it's an option, they occasionally do, but we ain't the main focus, homie. Never have been. Apple, Meta, Tesla, they're the real clients to the Democratic party.
Fuck em both. Don't give me your half-assed freedom fighters in suits lol.
AOC is just Disney liberal.
Edit: DEFEND YOUR OWNERS, LEMMY
Biden just pardoned his son and you can't afford dental. Mad? Why? You voted for it.
Is this you seething because Dems are trying to end subminimum wage or something?
