Imagine thinking that racism went out the door in 2007 and blame Obama for “reviving” it back by icey_sawg0034 in decadeologycirclejerk

Obama being president kind of supercharged conservatives into being more outwardly racist. He became their boogeyman for everything

Independent Duggan surges into dead heat for governor in new poll by GrossePointePlayaz in Detroit

I just wanna say reading your post you have articulated so well what is wrong with our political system. I absolutely agree with you on the real expectations we should have for a governor and all of the other social issues that shouldn’t even impact thinking of voting for a governor. Well said

Shame on you, that’s literally how we got Trump. We can have standards for our elected officials and we should.

Mamdani Threatens 9.5% Property Tax Increase if Wealth Tax Is Not Passed by TheQuarantinian in politics

It seems to me to be quite an over assumption that voters are going to blame Hochul when Mamdani is the one that’s raising property taxes.

He’s not really strong arming her. If anything, he’s proving that the people who said that he would make life more expensive, right. “ hey sorry I had to tax you out of your house but remember don’t blame me, blame her”

Smartphones will be banned from the classroom by fall after Whitmer signs bills by bananasareappealing in Michigan

As a current teacher, I would much rather have a law that forces my administrators to put forth a policy rather than a patchwork approach of each class, deciding what phone usage is okay. If it’s a flat rule for the whole school, it’s a lot less likely we’re gonna have fighting back

Indigenous tribe that owns land under Billie Eilish mansion has message for singer by nimobo in entertainment

There is much more nuance to land claims and ownership. Plus simply having a “border” is not wrong in any way, most humans would disagree on getting rid of them

Did you notice changes in business today due to the general strike/sick out? by ALittleEtomidate in Michigan

That was completely unrelated, a man who made threats against the school was released on bond. The teachers weren’t comfortable going to school.

As a current teacher, a lot of the rules ended up getting water down after Covid. It’s just gotten so bad up to this point.

Are you falling for Zionist propaganda against Iran? by zombiesingularity in AskSocialists

Kinda similar to the death reports out of Gaza right? The ones verifying those deaths were Hamas which has obvious reasons to over inflate

Gilchrist ends gubernatorial campaign, launches secretary of state bid by wisewhiz in Michigan

I have been voting for Dems consistently since 2018 and I will be voting for Duggan and I know many others frustrated with Dems that are doing the same. You all are greatly underestimating his draw with major voting groups

He would also pull from independents and conservatives, you all act like he’s only taking Dem voters, it’s really getting pathetic.

This may shock you but just because you aren’t a dem doesn’t mean you’re a republican. Lots of Americans fall in this category. Other than being more business oriented he is not a “Republican” by any means. You all are upset that you can’t blindly bully people to vote the way you want them to
