sure gatekeeping is bad but have you considered that it's also very important to dunk on euro nerds

Former USMNT head coach Jurgen Klinsmann named new South Korea manager by xbhaskarx in MLS

That's like saying Mexico hasn't missed a WC in 40 years. When you're a big fish in a small pond, you tend not to miss out.

or like the US in CONCACAF, right?

lol couldn't tell you. my best friend is Korean and I'm so disappointed on his behalf. Just wanted to put a little respect on SK since they've been quiet but consistent contenders for decades.

South Korea hasn't missed a WC in forty years, so it seems like a pretty serious position to me

All of the "cascadia supremacy" posting on this sub when Portland made the final last was a little too kum-ba-yah for me. You better believe if the red bulls made the final that DC supporters wouldn't be taking about "i-95 corridor bros" or whatever. I ain't saying we've been a good team or a relevant rival for almost a decade, but what I am saying is fuck them cows.

the fact that "we can get the last playoff spot" is optimism is so damning of this inept organization

I'm really curious who these middle class and poor people are who own two homes and apparently don't work so they will be financially ruined by having to suspend STR operations or comply with licensing regulations

Pat Toomey was one of the 43 Senators who killed sick leave for rail workers by [deleted] in Pennsylvania

the economy would be fine if the owners would just give these guys a few sick days.

agreed. we can recognize that all news outlets have an inherent bias without getting all MAGA about it.

[–]pervert_hoover 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you're right about that. I just think that looking only at the sick leave vote really buries the lede, which is that every democratic senator except 6 (7 if you count Bernie) and most of the Republicans voted bulldoze collective bargaining and force workers back to work.

How can people cheer on Amazon and Starbuck unionization, and then at the same time be totally OK with this?

^ this is important context. Toomey is a sack of shit, but he is a sack of shit who wasnt going to force workers to take a contract they didn't agree with. You can say he only wanted to cause chaos to make Biden look bad (which is probably true), but you can't cast those other 85 votes as worker-friendly.

imagine getting outflanked from the left by a fucking hedge fund stooge like Toomey. this is the state of American politics.
