Members stevenkesslar Posted December 3, 2024 Members Posted December 3, 2024 Unions score major win in Wisconsin with court ruling restoring collective bargaining rights Union leaders were overjoyed with the ruling, which affects tens of thousands of public employees. At the end of the day, Democrats are pro-worker, and Republicans are anti-worker. And, in particular, Democrats are pro-union, and Republicans are anti-union. Donald Trump and Tammy Baldwin, the kind of lesbian @EmmetKruelty constantly insults and derides, just won statewide election. (Why do you hate lesbians, @EmmetKruelty?) Trump 1.0 was mainly anti-worker and pro-boss and pro-billionaire. Trump likes billionaires who give him money. Why did he win Wisconsin, as did Baldwin, who fights for unions and workers? Good question. Part of what I believe is that if you are pro-worker, you have to SHOUT IT EVERY FUCKING DAY. AMLO did that in Mexico. And the woman he chose to replace him won in a landslide. Biden won union households, soundly. I think it would have been worse for him if were not the most pro-union President ever. That said, if you are a worker who lives paycheck to paycheck and rents, inflation is inherently anti-worker. This is now what Democrats have to do every day. They need to talk about what they did that was pro-worker yesterday, and what they did that was pro-worker today, and what they will do that is pro-worker tomorrow. Not what they said. What they actually did. And they have to remind voters, every single fucking day, that the Republicans are the ones who took away worker health care, and worker safety, and worker benefits. Republicans are still the party of the billionaire donors and bosses. Quote
