People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

How is that relatively new? I'm pushing 40 and since long before my lifetime it's been democrats supporting unions, breaking monopolies, and placing regulations on industry.

You probably know more than I do for being older, but I don't recall the democrats being earnest about any of it. Obama was a nightmare depending which sector you worked in at the time.

Maybe they do what you say but the net result is things have gotten worse from an inequality standpoint.
