A federal judge in Texas is blocking a rule enacted by President Joe Biden earlier this year that provides overtime pay protection for roughly four million American workers.
Obviously a little late for this administration, but could the next liberal admin try beating them to the punch on this? Are there no liberal friendly judicial districts? Have one of those file a weak lawsuit to uphold the law. Then that could at least be referenced when they attack in a red area.
The problem is there aren’t enough actual liberals left in the DNC. The majority of the DNC is more than happy to screw over workers to the benefit of corporations. What resistance they provide is mostly performative, as their real priorities are dictated by what the large corporate donors are paying for.
No, the problem is there are too many liberals in the party and not enough leftists. Liberals love them some anti-worker pro-corporate welfare and other right-wing policies that only benefit the rich.
I always wonder if I’m just missing some kind of shift in the language and then six replies later they mention they don’t live in the US and I think “aw crap”.

You’re assuming there will be elections again

Screwing over workers to the benefit of Corporations is what Liberals are for. You mean there’s no leftist left in the DNC.

Oh for fuck’s sake
Neoliberalism, the ideology of the DNC, is a center right to right wing ideology that inherently favors moneyed interests over workers.
Conflating “liberal” and “Left” like the billionaire-owned media do on purpose only furthers the false dichotomy of the two party system.
Yeah it seems the hexbear “technical” definition of liberal has taken over on Lemmy, and not the definition that, you know, most people use.

Yeah, notice there isn’t a McResistance this time around like there was with the performative pussy hats and shit.
The problem is SCOTUS. Anything reaching them is going to come down on the Republican side.
