    Currently it’s focused on legislating the gains made by the courts on areas of gender, sexuality, and racial discrimination I’ve been hearing about this bill and the other bills seen as tag-alongs for the past 4 or so years in professional activist/aide circles.

    I didn’t ask what the most recent civil rights legislation they’re not going to pass is. I asked what the most recent civil rights legislation they passed was.

    This is only true if you ignore/dont know about the senate lobbying and negotiation for the PRO-Act.

    They successfully engaged in strikebreaking. Can centrists not tell the difference between claiming to want to accomplish something and actually accomplishing it?

    This is incredibly disingenuous and portrays the vaguely free market years of Clinton as the entirety of democratic policy for the past 70 years.

    If we ever get to the left of Clinton again, you can make that claim with some legitimacy.

      Lmfao stfu, imagine taking years of work/activism and pissing all over it like this.

      Can “radicals” ever figure out how politics actually works instead of just claiming everyone is a liar liar pants on fire?

      The only physical way you can claim that the bootleg social democracy of Biden is to the right of Bill Clinton’s Neoliberalism is if you’re willfully ignorant of the direction the part has been heading the past 20 years.

          It’s more like, imagine trying to do something and spending most of your time on it and then have a bunch of people pissed off you’re not done with it yet the first time they ever hear of your effort.

            Don’t expect praise for something that hasn’t passed, and maybe you won’t have people pissed off because you’re demanding praise for something that hasn’t passed.

        Aspiration isn’t accomplishment. Just because you’re happy to accept nothing because you prefer nothing, that doesn’t mean others are content with it.
