- Comment on UPS drivers won “historic heat protections.” They say the company hasn't lived up to that promise. 2 months ago:
to clarify yes did cherry pick paragraphs
my goal was to not have a screen’s worth of text unless people desired it hence the links
did not personally feel it interfered with the facts as of today’s date since Biden’s career has on the whole been center right in his politics especially with worker’s rights
but will in the future take more heed of the dates involved

after threatening them with their livlihoods and retirement yes he gave them a small amount of what they were demanding
not a victory and that is not a champion of worker’s rights
In September 2022, U.S. Senators Richard Burr and Roger Wicker introduced a bill that would have required labor unions to agree to the terms proposed by the Presidential Emergency Board, to prevent a strike.[18] It was blocked by Senator Bernie Sanders, who noted that freight rail workers receive a “grand total of zero sick days” while railroad companies made significant profits.[19] In the House of Representatives, Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, “We’d rather see negotiations prevail so there’s no need for any actions from Congress.”[16]
In late November, after some unions had rejected the agreement, Biden asked Congress to pass the agreement into law. On November 30, the House of Representatives passed the existing tentative agreement along with an amended version that would require railroad employers to ensure 7 days paid sick leave.[20] On December 1, the Senate passed the tentative agreement with only 1 day of sick leave.[21] President Joe Biden signed the legislation into law on December 2.[4] The Biden administration’s intervention in the dispute was condemned by over 500 labor historians in an open letter to Joe Biden and Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh.[22]

- Comment on Reviews for "Leave The World Behind" being brigaded with copy/paste negative reviews - presumably because it was produced by the Obamas. 10 months ago:
maybe this sort of thing will be what biden does too
get in on office with promises to change things to the better and quarter ass the job get nothing done you promised on the campaign trail and when you are done leaving things worse than when you got in people still support you to do things such as produce films
democrats and republicans are definitely in the same bed on this
what about the anti vape laws obama signed in that trump supported that were also supported by biden helping to create the vape problem we have now such as shops selling whatever product with no evaluations or lab reports and stamping out the research needed for better products and that help exacerbate the current cannabis laws and policing laws as well
obama came in on empty promises just like trump and biden and watched sports games and fucked around his whole four years came out with more support after doing nothing and using that to still make money like obamas book

obama did at least get more that he promised done but still at less than 50% and the damage done by his policies are still carrying on to today and he is using the clout he got doing it to expand his coffers wild people vote for this and yell support for blindly while being wounded by these politicians policies
