Thankful for our lack of train brake regulations and poor working conditions for rail workers on this blessed day 🦃 🙏 ❤️

Bonus: b-b-but what about our treats?
I want an emote of the bumbling male protagonist from the Kelly cartoons
Never let liberals forget Biden broke the railroad strike.
No. What you tankies don't ever say (probably because you're working for Putin) is that Biden and Pete worked quietly behind the scenes to get the unions what they wanted but without ruining Christmas with their mean-spirited strike designed to hurt Democrats in the midterms.
… is usually the first reply to that point and it's like nails on a chalkboard. Digging a little deeper into it reveals that this was not the case
.Everyone went back to brunch once the IBEW—a union that represents ~5% of the industry and doesn't even represent the train crews whose rank-and-file were intent on striking—did a press release praising Biden for a measly 4 sick days (that were watered down from the 14 the unions were initially striking for or the 7 in the PEB-sponsored agreement) and didn't address the insane precision rail scheduling and draconian attendance policies imposed by the freight carriers, nor is the new policy universal across all unions. It infuriates me to no end that the gaslighting operation was once again successful, just like with Covid/Covid checks and the infrastructure bill switcharoo. People believe that these things were well-managed by Brandon and the Dems and it drives me nuts. Like, these motherfuckers stripped workers of one of the central tools they have to fight for better conditions without breaking a sweat, then stuck them with a joke of a deal and proceeded to pat themselves on the back (amidst a catastrophic rail disaster, no less!). It's truly a sickening country.
Ur so right time to vote fash 🫡
Some people engage with politics in other ways than the one way that is designed to be completely undemocratic; and more frequently than every 2 or 4 years.
joins ML instance
only lectures people on how to vote without providing any context, resources, or actual critique
So what's your deal anyway? Why don't you try posting on F*cebook? What are you trying to accomplish? Are you just a debate lord, or a masochist or some kind of operator? There has got to Be a better use of your time than debating literal anarchists and communists, any one of which likely dwarfs your political imagination with theory and praxis, on why they should vote for a capitalist party that is consciously and actively contributing to the mass-death of thousands of species including humanity.
Ur so right time to vote fash 🫡
Which one isn't the fash?
Pretty funny of Butt Edge Edge to derail another train on this blessed genocide day celebration. Really brings all the festivities together
You're welcome
Another disaster in trillbillies country, can't catch a break
We have turkeys in the oven, we can't leave
Lmao what do you mean you can't leave?!? You want to die for turkey like a dumbass?!?
I think it's more along the lines of "the government doesn't do jack shit for us. It doesn't protect us from train derailments, but it does show up right before Thanksgiving to cancel our family meal and tell us to gtfo"
Fair point lol
Americans will proudly die for their treats! 🇺🇸
Even aside from the rest, my immediate reaction to that was that it was more like "the ovens are on, our house is gonna burn down"
Tbh I would probably say some shit like this. Train is already derailed. Y'all wanna stay for dinner?
Barbarians unable to properly manage a railway system, but will never ask for much-needed help from a civilized society
Ironically the US exploited Chinese labor to build their railroads.
Now China could teach the US a bit about rail systems.
american society built with stolen labor on stolen land
as always
While you were partying I studied the railway
While you were doing imperialist wars I studied the train
While you were having treats I mastered infrastructure.
And now when the world is falling and the barbarians are at the gate you have the audacity to ask me for help.
innocent diners
B-but!
Why they oughta ban trains, they kill people!
Chemical spill?
A mop and a hot water bucket should do the job
Its like the train cars are attracted to flowing rivers so they can spread the spill even further.
From the river to the sea the train cars will be free
"You're evacuated. There's 12 to 14 Army Trucks by the bridge. The PLA are closing in with their tanks. You have to get out of here".
We said, "What about Thanksgiving?"
Greeting the PLA troops with a good meal is a nice way of showing them how grateful you are to be liberated.
