The Left’s Shameful Hypocrisy in the Government Shutdown: Anti-Worker Politics Disguised as Progressivism

The current government shutdown has exposed something deeply disturbing about the state of so-called progressivism in America. As the federal government teeters on the brink of chaos, there are voices, voices that claim to be on the left, calling for the shutdown to continue. They present it as some kind of moral or political strategy, a way to "punish" the administration or make a political statement. But what they fail—or refuse—to acknowledge is the human cost of this so-called […]

“At a time when federal employees are working without pay, furloughed workers are taking out bank loans to pay their bills, healthcare premiums are skyrocketing, and SNAP is at risk, Trump’s celebration of his marble bathroom was so tone deaf it seems likely to make the history books as a symbol of this administration.”

One saves lives. The other destroys lives.

Anyone else think this is just wrong?

Maybe we don't need a general strike in #uspol Maybe we just need a strike of as many workers as possible who are directly supporting the top 1% (or even 0.1%) in the US If every nanny, housekeeper, cleaner, driver, trainer, executive assistant, etc currently supporting an obscenely rich person went on strike... I think shit would change
