i was on board with everything this administration has been doing (at least domestically) until the rail strike. As far as I can tell, they’ve been doing everything an administration can reasonable do with the narrow Senate majority they got in the first two years, and the split legislature that was sworn in this year. But up until the rail strike, I wasn’t sure if Biden was making these moves to support his re-election bid, or if he genuinely cared for working Americans.

The bogus rail strike “deal” brought that into focus real quick for me.

jimmydoreisalefty OP ,

Blocking and stopping the rail strike was a huge deal for pro-union people.

IMO they try to make it seem like they are trying to help the people, but in general I see the blue dogs as just republicans with better PR.

They do throw crumbs at us, but that is just how they keep up the game going of the two party system.

In the end both parties accomplish what they really want to in the background.

Example: War budgets and bills being passed with no to little resistance from AOC/Bernie/Justice Dems.

In the end we need to align on class lines, the people vs. the wealthy.
