Thanks for sharing, I didn't know about him. For anyone else reading this look up the Coal Wars and the Homestead Strike.

Labor has always had to kill, die, and fight against Capital for the rights we have today. They don't really teach these things in school (I think I learned about the Pinkertons in AP US History) because it would give Labor too much cultural power, but it's crucial for US citizens (and anyone really) to understand what it has taken to get to where we are.

as long as they see more lgbtq and brown people getting it first, then they'll have "won" in their minds

Sounds like it's they want another fight akin to the 19th and early 20th centuries...

"Empathy is a sin"

Do you honestly think Trump is gonna "go down"? How would you envision that? I'm worried he's going to Kissinger it and live for another 15 years.

I'm so looking forward to see this sniveling coward arrested and locked up (or worse) when this regime falls down.

I think you meant "brown"

Get fucked Rachel. I hope you feel every possible pain that you voted for.

No we're not screwed. Yes the fascists are trying to solidify their tenuous hold but we will push back even harder and make their lives hell in every possible way, and fight to get back our representation as a whole. Stop with this defeatist bullshit and do something.

We sure are sounding a lot like the US in the late 1840s and early 1850s, in this context. Also we're sounding like Europe in the 1920s and 30s.
