        Yeah a lot of them same UAW people when they got their benefits stopped giving a shit and just went back to being normal reactionaries. Like if some “leftist” only really talks about basic shit like M4A which is just having the government pay insurance companies instead of you or free college as well as holding reactionary viewpoints socially either currently or recently, than we shouldn’t just look at them as like turning to the left or even something as radical as becoming a communist. They might just want free shit for themselves and have accepted that everyone having it is the way they get it.
