    Funny how allowing the owner class to exploit children is phrased to imply it’s giving children a choice. 🤮

      This is Republicans soft launching “children yearn for the mines” rhetoric. USA is effectively regressing and removing what originally made this country “great.” I fear for my children as they grow older. I can only do so much as a parent to steer them onto a path of least hardship, but Republicans are increasingly making that difficult.

        I don’t think we started out great, honestly. Our history is pretty fucking dark. I think we could have been great, and we might have even been getting close. But I absolutely agree that the progress we have made is regressing in front of our eyes. Worse, anybody who doesn’t celebrate this senseless destruction is also being demonized.
