Thanks to the labor movement, workers have weekends, 8-hour workdays, paid overtime, a minimum wage, breaks during work, the right to strike, workplace safety standards, and child labor laws.
This #LaborDay, we must recommit to growing the union movement in this country.
There is a push by some to place blame about SCOTUS on Bernie or Bust folks, and as satisfying as that may be in the short term it, just doesn't hold up to scrutiny. That position also absolves the Dems of DECADES of inaction against GOP anti-Democratic tendencies #thread
@jacewinger@SeanRossSapp And honestly? Being all “he re-signed multiple times” is ignoring that people can feel differently, specifically worse, about a job as time goes on. He wasn’t always as miserable in WWE as he was when he left.
@jacewinger@SeanRossSapp I didn’t realize you had to swear fealty to whoever gave you a big break. End of the day, Punk got sick of the booking, the broken promises, and the time he almost actually died, and no amount of money he made at WWE prohibits him from being upset at that.
@RichLowry If he could do that, why didn’t he for the entire 4 years he was President? Why didn’t Bush or Obama do that either, if it was apparently that simple?
@Kosaba11 @PastamaniaFan26 @RossOnRasslin Plus Tony Khan saying in interviews how the fans know what to expect for The First Dance, and tweeting out about the historic announcement for the show, the biggest in AEW history.
@Kosaba11 @PastamaniaFan26 @RossOnRasslin SRS reported they were talking, and then AEW announced a show in the fucking United Center in Chicago on three weeks notice, a week and a half before they do 3 more shows in Chicago, with Darby Allin calling out the “best in the world” on air.
@Kosaba11 @attitud3era@RossOnRasslin Tony Khan is straight teasing this shit so hard TNT is openly talking to Fightful about it. It is ABSOLUTELY on AEW if Punk doesn’t show.
i admit i prolly came across too aggro at this random person but the necessity of charity is an indication of systemic failure. it’s still useful to help out mutual aid orgs in the short term but that’s not how you solve structural problems. the rich also use it as a tax shelter
onlyfans banning sex workers is like the ocean banning fish and whales, they are what makes you what you are, and to deny that would be irresponsible and laughably stupid
