    Kinda upset that no one makes a big deal about connecting the rail strikes with the East Palestine incident. Like, the president interferes with a union negotiation, revokes their right to strike in order to “save Christmas,” then a major incident occurs three months later because the boss ordered the workers to ignore safety issues while transferring hazardous chemicals. To me, this seems like low hanging fruit to rile up voters and start pushing for change, but it all just… faded away.

      That’d require the left to gasp upset neoliberals, which would jeopardize the two sides’ Stockholm Syndrome-fueled abusive relationship. You can probably guess who the abusive side is.
