I wonder how many medical gofundme campaigns were spawned from these 663 shootings.

A player in my most recent session accepted an offer to become a vampire. I was settling in for a couple sessions of drama as I stacked more reasons for accepting the offer, nah, about 5 seconds in and they're ready for undeath.

Seeking to ease one's conscience by means of spending excess money is hyper-individualistic and conforms with a self-interested worldview.

The perverse thing is how neoliberalism has left people with the idea that they can meaningfully impact the world through deciding where they spend the pittance left them after their bosses and government warmongers have taken their cut.

If you give a shit about the environment stop believing the propaganda that market forces will be swayed by your hobby of guilt spending. It will be the hard work of organizing people and uprooting the financial interest who direct national and global policy.

I am not trying to pile on, genuinely curious about your perspective as a socialist.

I don't think many people around here have an issue with strategic voting alongside actual organizing and support. The way you worded your first comment sounded like uncritical support for Biden/Democrats in regard to their rail union 'achievements'. From later comments it doesn't sound like that is what you intended, but I am struggling to understand why they deserve any credit. Even from the article you posted, they removed the only actual leverage the workers have, then after significant public pressure, helped avert further unrest by convincing the companies to give less than 50% of the workers 3 or 4 days of paid sick leave a year. I don't see anything laudable here. (And for the absolute idiots, [email protected], I agree 4 sick day more gooder than 0 sick day).
