Stopped reading at "Communist Russia." Who do I 
for in order to get that?
The response should be that they’re lucky they’re making it out with only their cash flow destroyed 
Man, that thread 
. I’ve been dinged for the same reason but only caught a temporary ban, but it was enough to leave 
for good, and I’m better off because of it. Why would I stick around a site that bans me for reporting blatantly racist and/or murderous comments?
On a related note, I see so many “these dumb terrorist-sympathizing kids only heard about Palestine from TikTok” comments in there. Where did this piss-tier talking point come from? My father used it in an argument recently and I know he has no clue what TikTok is, so my presumption was that it originated on Fox, but I’ve seen plenty of libs using the same line. Is it just today’s version of “the kids don’t know anything because their minds are rotten from watching too much dang TV?” Where do these clowns think their blind defense of Israel came from anyway?
He single-handedly won the UAW their contract!
No. What you tankies don't ever say (probably because you're working for Putin) is that Biden and Pete worked quietly behind the scenes to get the unions what they wanted but without ruining Christmas with their mean-spirited strike designed to hurt Democrats in the midterms.
… is usually the first reply to that point and it's like nails on a chalkboard. Digging a little deeper into it reveals that this was not the case 
.
Everyone went back to brunch once the IBEW—a union that represents ~5% of the industry and doesn't even represent the train crews whose rank-and-file were intent on striking—did a press release praising Biden for a measly 4 sick days (that were watered down from the 14 the unions were initially striking for or the 7 in the PEB-sponsored agreement) and didn't address the insane precision rail scheduling and draconian attendance policies imposed by the freight carriers, nor is the new policy universal across all unions. It infuriates me to no end that the gaslighting operation was once again successful, just like with Covid/Covid checks and the infrastructure bill switcharoo. People believe that these things were well-managed by Brandon and the Dems and it drives me nuts. Like, these motherfuckers stripped workers of one of the central tools they have to fight for better conditions without breaking a sweat, then stuck them with a joke of a deal and proceeded to pat themselves on the back (amidst a catastrophic rail disaster, no less!). It's truly a sickening country.
Lmao this is awesome. Extremely critical support to the House GOP and Tuberville in the Senate for doing their parts to hamstring the US war machine thanks to their stunning incompetence and/or stubborn contrarianism.
A stage collapse would be acceptable. As long as it hurts the entire time 
pretty hard right here.
Also 
off the charts. Liberals should follow their leader.
Yeah, glad to see better takes have filtered in later on. They and similar articles are still buried in controversial, though, and now I'm seeing the justification is that Biden is just doing what Congress told Trump to do when they appropriated funding for it in 2019 so there's nuance and it's still Trump's fault. It's a truly bizarre place in that sub. I don't even know why I do it to myself; I got banned years ago when I was still a 
for making a joke about the GOP leadership dying in the fire they started during one of the shutdowns lmao. Like, not even outright wishing for it, just riffing off of someone else's comment about Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell lighting America on fire or something.
Also, because I was searching for it and couldn't find it and thought I was going crazy, here's the delusional "Russia is behind this" thread. Turns out they were in different comments on an article about Mayorkas' statement.
