People are voting against universal health care? Do people other than hospital and Pharma owners actually vote against that?

[–] McNasty@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 year ago

It's a point of pride for republicans to vote against the working class.

Well, people who want universal healthcare have a D next to their name. That is enough for 10s of millions of Americans to blindly vote against it

Most of those with a D next to their name are fighting just as hard against universal healthcare while collecting campaign donations from pharmaceutical companies anyway. Both parties are rotten servants to the capitalist class

No, we're not going to both parties this discussion.

Until one of them starts to actually advocate for these policies i see no point in deluding ourselves into thinking voting blue will make any difference when they literally do not push for universal healthcare

Well, there's one party that has made it a point specifically to make things worse for people. They say it out loud. So vote for the other one while it's still a 2 party system

Any other mentality is delusional
