Vote harder!

By mike flugennockTuesday - July 5th, 2022Categories: Bidenism, Economy, Party Animals, environment

“Kristi Parrott is joining the Subcommittee on Environment from HBW Resources, where she lobbied Congress on behalf of an astroturf group for oil majors…” —Donald Shaw at Sludge, 07.01.2022

This was inspired by the lead foto in this article I caught at Sludge a few days ago.

This, kiddies, is the party people are expecting to fight for reproductive rights — the party who couldn’t get you universal healthcare, or decent COVID relief, or housing relief, or an unemployment benefits extension during the pandemic, who’s instead shoveling cash into a capitalist proxy war in the Ukraine, now signing up Big Oil lobbyists for the House Environmental Subcommittee.

If you think the DNC is going to lift a finger for women, or the working class, or the poor, or anyone else who’s really struggling in this goddamn country, you’re as stupid as you look.

What’s happy about it?

By mike flugennockSaturday - January 1st, 2022Categories: Bidenism, Black Lives Matter, Economy, Health Care, coronavirus, environment

As seen from the POV of Old Father Time.

Happy New Year? Huh, what’s happy about it?
No, really; I know it’s only January 1st, but what the hell’s happy about it?

Season’s Greetings

By mike flugennockFriday - December 24th, 2021Categories: Bidenism, Economy, Health Care, coronavirus, environment

For the workers who died at a candle factory in Kentucky, and an Amazon warehouse in Illinois, for every worker forced to risk their life without proper protective gear or healthcare, in the middle of a pandemic and a tornado, to keep the profits coming in and the supply chain stocked so we can buy our daughters a Fighter Pilot Barbie for Christmas… Season’s Greetings from Capitalism.

“The bosses won’t keep us safe; they only care about profit. Workers are the only ones who know what is safe and what is not. We should decide whether to continue working or not. For that purpose, we need to fight for Health and Safety Commissions to be set up in all workplaces that will function independent of the bosses, that are democratically elected, and that can organize to impose protocols and shut down production when necessary.

Not one more dead worker at the hands of the bosses! Our lives are worth more than their profits!”

Live With It

By mike flugennockTuesday - November 23rd, 2021Categories: Bidenism, Black Lives Matter, Economy, coronavirus, environment

And, there we have it — we’ve gone from “we’re all in this together” to “live with it”. Like, screw you — just shaddup and live with it; they’re through even pretending to care.

So, what else will we be expected to “live with” — labor exploitation? Fascist thugs ruling the streets? The end of the goddamn Earth?
