Probably one that's feeling the pressure from over 1000 workers organized into multiple unions and wants an out. At least that's my bedtime fantasy
US government too. Blinken and Biden should face a new Nuremberg as well.
There's not enough profit to them. Perhaps we should reconsider using an economic system that denies people the things they need most.
A left-wing serial murderer that was tortured by the CIA, being appointed next to Trump? Yes please
Why do the categories have to be mutually exclusive? ADHD is a neurodivergent condition that can cause disability.
I hope it means they nationalize and expand rail, go hard on new offshore wind and ocean current production, ban oversized vehicles, and create community hydroponic gardens. Of course this is the UK labour party and not a real labor party, so they'll half-ass everything they try
Ok, be calm. We practiced this. Just dial the number and take a deep breath. Stretch. Cook a meal. Buy groceries. Clean the house. Brush your teeth. Solve homelessness and world hunger.

It's the annual government greenwashing getaway.
The way I look at it, things have to get better. Because if they don't then we will destroy ourselves. Barbarism until socialism.

And Blinken will find some excuse to keep pushing arms despite them crossing the line
Give people the basic dignity of existence, even when you're pissed at them.
Well American history gives us the options for "reservation" and "internment camp"

Why do you disagree? He mobilized the same number of voters, consistent over 3 elections. He got them to care, by borrowing leftist aesthetics to push class division.
Politicians mobilize voters, not the other way around. A politician failed to effectively mobilize. The strategy isn't just "make everyone vote", it's to get people to care. The genocide isn't a single issue to be ignored, it's 43k reasons to not vote for either candidate.
The US government is not just arming a country that kills Americans with impunity — it's lying on Israel's behalf so it can escape blame for those murders. Why is this allowed to continue?

Some of the more avid history fans might be thinking, "Casey Jones saved several lives, why is he being portrayed as a scab?"
The intro that Utah gives for this song doesn't explain it enough in my opinion. It's a fictitious and comedy song that uses the name recognition of Casey, simply because there weren't really any well known railroad scabs and Joe Hill was basing this song on the Ballad of Casey Jones in honor of a rail strike.
