Hey y'all, if you're here to shit on unions, you can fuck right off. I've been a union man since I was a union boy, and I will be a union man until the day I die. If you're here to shit on the workers of the world, or to make excuses for someone who is currently doing that, go fuck yourself and don't come back.
It might be because 2008 caught people by surprise? Like, we were supposed to be at the end of history, it was supposed to be all smooth sailing. But then the crash happened and people never recovered. The Obama neolibs bailed the banks, then Trump made it worse, then Covid hit without people even getting back to pre-2008 levels of safety and Biden has done jack shit.
People today, especially the younguns are far more pessimistic about capitalism than they were in the 2000s or even 2010s.

You can't eat boot to avoid starvation though
