If you want nuance, I can give it to you. I've successfully formed a union that spans across 3 states, including Texas. It's one of the largest tech unions in North America. We got it through political messaging. Generally I consider anyone that can successfully get people to join a union for political reasons a pretty informed and nuanced person. But what do I know.
You seem not to know the difference between the parties so there's that.
And what gave that impression?
Anyone spouting both sides nonsense isn't a serious person.
You don't know anything about my political beliefs. You want to put me in a box so you can safely ignore me without analyzing your political beliefs. If unserious people are the ones forming radically militant unions, then I'd rather be with the unserious people instead of your brand of "serious"
Political beliefs mean fuck-all in the face of political reality. You just keep getting republicans elected with your beliefs and I'll keep trying to stop it here in reality.
I don't know if you knew this, but organizing unions is literally an intersection between political beliefs and political reality.
