  • Productive for whom? Having an assload of dem bills isn’t progress in and of itself. What did that congress pass that made life meaningfully better for everyone? They could have passed single payer healthcare, didn’t. They could have passed medicare for all, didn’t. They could have raised the federal minimum wage, didn’t. Could have codified Roe v. Wade, fucking didn’t.

    First they filled the Obama cabinet with citibank execs right as it became clear that bankers had caused the economic equivalent of a manmade famine for a quick buck. Then, when it was time to pass the bills that got them elected they dragged their feet and watered down the bills as soon as they had the flimsiest excuse. I won’t call it “compromising” because if they absolutely wanted to put their foot down and pass all that shit, they could have. We’ve seen ample proof. Their sponsors wouldn’t stand for it and that’s who calls the shots in Washington.

    Lol imagine being so brainwashed that you don’t uncritically believe when USAID funded outlets tell you North Koreans are so genetically intellectually inferior that they honestly believe Kim Il Sung is god, was the best sportsman ever at everything, and he’s immortal now? Dude they literally make them pull trains by hand because they’re so poor, I heard somebody say it!

    All the hours and weeks and months and years of footage is all faked tho
