>Republicans push class divide so to keep their voter base uneducated and poor.
Dems almost exclusively Lord over academia as something so valuable that the people that do jobs that keep the lights on, water running, and the floors steady are tired of hearing how much knowledge they lack. They say this in the same breath as they accuse republicans of keeping the sacred university knowledge from trades workers

That's one article that seemed a good summary, but there are a half dozen different things that could be cited as ways Biden has supported unions.
- aiisjustanif 2y agoWhat does that have to do with the original point that they don’t care about working class people if all of those monumental acts still exist and help working class people. I can state the Infrastructure bill and the CHIPS act from the last 2 years giving more job opportunities.
- indigo0086 2y agoAll of these are terrible.
- aiisjustanif 2y agoThat’s not the point, the point was that democrats don’t care about blue collar or the working class and they obviously take actions to show that.
