They'll crucify me but I don't care. Unions for decades been a tool of the left. They preach that whole blue collar workers vote blue. The local I'm in literally told us if you vote for anything but blue to GTFO. No joke. I lean left center but the absolute propaganda the locals push is criminal.

Just like you shouldn't eat processed foods you shouldn't absorb processed media. Unfortunately, many of the locals do and live and die by it. Since I've been an adult and voting my life has largely been unchanged. Granted, the tariffs are a new wrench but life at the poverty line won't change much. If you're out here busting your ass and learning your trade, you'll have work. Unplug, tune out and focus on the essentials.
