This comment spoke to me. I'm in the trades as well. I vote blue because, its further left than I can get from the red party.

Best of luck. We will need it.

Riley: Oh, yes, the victim! At what point does personal responsibility become a factor in this equation?

Dubois: I don't think that's--

Riley: I see piss coming, I move.

Huey: mmm

Riley: She saw piss coming, she stayed.

Dubois: Yes, she did, but--

Riley: And why should I have to miss out on the next R. Kelly album! Just for that?!

I guess, I don't get the opportunity to ride the bus as often as I would like.

Sure, I guess more social friction will solve the issue.

I'd say getting drunk could also be a cultural thing.

Beating your wife? I could not see as a cultural thing.

I've said it once and I'll say it again. I love the work Lina Khan is doing. Its going to be so sad when Kamala gives her the boot :(

I hear you. I agree with you, it's just hard for me to condemn the loud music and domino games because, from my perspective its people practicing their culture.

I understand that it's inconsiderate and a nuisance to most. I just have really good memories of that kind of culture at that volume. I'm bias.

I loved the film Do The Right Thing as a kid. It was one of my favorite Spike Lee joints.

Radio Raheem was an icon to me. The sound of hip hop in the street. It makes me sad how many people no longer want to interact with others in public.

The alienation of labor is real. Hang in there, we'll need you when things get better.

I would categorize them as conservative institutionalists. Which, in my opinion, the liberals have an easier time appealing to them ideologically.

Electorally thats a benefit and, thats the minimum we need against fascists right now.

Mad lad, hats off to you. If I have 6 or more open I start to feel uncomfortable.

I agree with this approach, most people hate politics. They either have an aversion to words like these or, use them incorrectly.

I think a very large part of educating, agitating and organizing is meeting people where they are. Once they get over their aversion, one would hope they will become class conscious.
