The real reason why people don’t want minimum wage workers to be able to afford housing, food and utilities working those jobs is because of classism They look down on those jobs and they don’t think that people who work those jobs should be able to live the same life as them
Why is it so impossible to say “Some jobs are for teenagers and college students and you’re supposed to stop doing them when your lifestyle demands a higher income”?

The "Middle Class" was a 50-year fluke designed to prevent a communist revolution during the Cold War. Now that the threat is gone, the elites are systematically dismantling it. You aren't "falling behind"; you’re being pushed back into the peasantry.

Unironically, this actually explains why the economy is in shambles right now. They've been paying executives astronomical rates while paying workers starvation wages, leading to no one being able to afford anything. Then they manipulate us, saying higher wages cause inflation.
The economy apparently collapses if you pay a worker $25/hour, but survives just fine if the CEO gets 25 million.

FDR was very explicit when creating the minimum wage that it should be a livable wage. This idea that minimum wage jobs are starter jobs is corporate propaganda used to defend paying people substandard wages.
I find it hard to believe that people who make coffee believe they are owed a salary that allows them to raise a family, buy a house, cars and exotic vacations. They make coffee!

Niggas so greedy they said 600 million dollars didn’t cut it for a movie launching a new franchise. Fuck off.
One of the reasons Skydance replaced James Gunn and Peter Safran as the heads of DC Studios had to do with box office. • ‘Supergirl’ was a massive bomb this year. • ‘Superman’s $618M box office was not impressive to Skydance either, as the film lacked “pop culture impact” in their eyes.

If you voted for Bush both times, I disagree but don’t hate you. If you voted for McCain, I disagree but don’t hate you. If you voted for Mitt Romney, I disagree but I don’t hate you. If you voted for Trump in 2016, you ignored a lot of shit. But you may have made an error in judgment. I could forgive some of you who thought he’d be different. If you voted for Trump in 2020 and beyond, you voted for exactly what he campaigned on. YOU are fundamentally broken. I can’t find an ounce of respect for your support for ICE, removing fairness and protection of minority groups and women, tireless trade wars against the entire world, forever wars we don’t know how to get out of, or a president who’s listed in the files over 38,000 times.

Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker. His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.” He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”

So many people asking themselves why DC can’t build a cinematic universe is funny because if you were there from the beginning the answer is very simple. During its inception the MCU was afforded two things DC never got: Time and Low Expectations.

Corporate buyouts and mergers is whats killing DC. Not the filmmakers and their vision. DC can't get anything going when things are shifting all the goddamn time.

This mindset is so stupid. DC was coming off of the WORST REPUTATION POSSIBLE with the DCEU, a franchise so hopeless that no one even wanted to watch the GOOD films that came out like The Suicide Squad & Blue Beetle. DC's in recovery mode, Superman was NEVER hitting $1 billion.
James Gunn and Peter Safran found out that they were no longer going to be running DC Studios this past Friday. Skydance co-CEOs David Ellison and Ynon Kreiz broke the news to them in person. (Source: hollywoodreporter.com/movies…)

Our private health insurance system is so despised that someone shot and killed a health insurance CEO and the comments section of news reports about his trial are always full of endless praise, celebration and justification for the shooter. What planet is she living on?
“The majority of Democrats did not run on Medicare for All. You think Adam Hamilton got elected in KS by saying he wants to kick everyone off their private insurance?” We should fight for universal healthcare. Not force a vote on a bill voters don't want. More from @Lis_Smith:

“To ratfuck Democrats” Remind me, was it a DSA member that endorsed a Republican just days before the election? Or was it a moderate Israel loving Democrat that was Chuck Schumer’s pick for the Senate?

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries failed so dramatically as Minority Leaders that Trump was able to easily start a war, bankrupt the economy, and form an illegal private army of goons to brutalize and murder American citizens. The entirety of the past two years, they have been directly complicit in the terrors of the Trump administration by capitulating to him at every turn, while attacking any leftist trying to stop him, and pushing dead-end candidates like Haley Stevens. Get these fucking people away from the levers of power before they can do even more damage.

66% want Medicare for All 61% want a billionaire wealth tax 57% want a $20/hour minimum wage 63% want a data center moratorium 58% want to end military aid to Israel 73% want to ban super PACs 79% want a 10% credit card interest rate cap No more excuses. Democrats must deliver.

Dems should do the opposite of this. Make it clear that you are the anti private equity party. Go hard on making private equity pay for their role in making stuff cost more. Regulate the shit out of them. Schumer is clearly not the guy to lead on this endeavor.
NEW: Chuck Schumer is preparing to lead the Senate with a network of former aides lobbying for private equity—including two former policy chiefs and his top health adviser. Their clients include Blackstone, Apollo, and the industry’s top trade group. readsludge.com/2026/11/06/th…

Do you remember in 2020 when we won back the WH, sat back and relaxed because we assumed the Democrats would get things done and hold the Republicans accountable? 2021 came, Joe Biden took over, and NO ONE was held accountable. They fucked it up so bad that a criminal was allowed to be voted into the presidency AGAIN! Democrats are as much responsible for what has been allowed to happen. Instead of offering olive branches to Republicans in 2021, they should have been cutting their fucking hands off! We need to keep our feet on the necks of every Democrat we voted in this time, and they need to know that we’re outraged. We’re not letting them fuck this up again!!

I'm sorry, but is public infighting smart right now?!? I don't disagree with her, but I think we should keep it in chambers and not let the other side see us sweat. Duke it out behind closed doors, then come out swinging.

Monied interests last strategy is keeping their minions in charge through this historic blue wave. They buy both teams to ensure their own victory. Schumer and Jeffries in leadership will be a win for billionaires and Israel and means all progress made this week was for nothing

The amount of pro-establishment democrat revisionism I've been seeing over the past 24 hours almost feels like a psy-op. Chuck Schumer endorsed two (2) candidates: One, Janet Mills, lost that Maine primary you point out. The other, Haley Stevens, lost and endorsed a republican.
Schumer flipped literally every seat that was actually difficult. Leftists flipped...Maine, a blue state, in the biggest blue wave of my lifetime. Schumer won Mississippi, Iowa, and probably Alaska. Leftists won zero elections that anyone with a pulse and a D next to their name wouldn't have taken down
