    The fact they keep insisting that the previous 4 years has been the greatest for labor movements in the last century, and that Biden is historically the most Union friendly president makes me feel some type of way.

    They abandoned campaigning on things that would appeal to progressives and workers, and instead campaigned on policies designed to appeal to center right, or “moderate” republicans. Turns out 90% of republicans will vote republican anyways, and in the process they dumped a large portion of their historical voter base. Hence, the roughly 15million vote deficit this election compared to 2020’s Dem turnout. In fact, the numbers indicate that a portion of the Dem 2020 vote turned Red this election.

    You have to confront voter apathy, the Reds do this by blaming minorities, the Blue’s fuck this up by insisting everything is great, and besides the other side is worse, so vote for 4 more years of the same!

    It’s not hard to see how this messaging falls flat when you’re deciding between groceries and rent.
