Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

If we're going to pretend that state-level victories should magically be credited to a do-nothing Federal Government controlled by Democrats, then let me remind you that 2/3 of the states are controlled by Republicans, and in 2/3 of the US states it's still perfectly legal to pay someone $7 an hour.
It matters that Biden, Harris, and their ilk don't do anything meaningful and rule as conservatives.
ACA, energy subsidies, and food stamps are all related to federal funding.
Biden's historic climate bill is nothing. Ok comrade.
What's historic is the amount of war spending and the fact that our country and president are actively supporting child genocide.
