Unfortunately, as is now being borne out daily, Democratic Party officials and journalism outlets did not spend so much as a single moment actually listening to the warnings of disinformation experts and researchers of the far right
it's particularly disheartening watching the major news outlets respond to authoritarianism by shifting the editorial overton window rightward because they were scared by a few civil rights protests and a fairly miniscule shift of power toward labor during covid
the skeerdy cat reaction against people protesting police freely murdering has been discussed, but I don't see much recognition at all the white hot rage that burned on the right, for the super-rich, and the reactionary 'small bidness' class from the moment we helped workers early pandemic
allowing the public the grace to work from home, and the data proving it's generally a good thing for productivity and morale, drove a large segment of the extraction class positively insane
that but I mean the very basics of us very momentarily treating workers' health & incomes as important and worthy of respect & assistance
the small bidness a**holes I had b*tch & moan in front of me of how we were paying undeserving bums not to work (but yeah we'll take that PP money sure)
yeah corporatist oligarchies pretending to be democracies really don't like it when you genuinely help the plebs
they're also really pissed because there's been a fractional boost in efforts on antitrust reform by the Biden FTC
Not just $: message, culture, appearance, ideology. These a**holes spend their whole lives, whether truly super rich or local jerka** small owner, convincing themselves they are the heroes & masters of all and to suggest the peasant bums who work for them are good and important is deeply enraging.
