I think they're gonna do it again, and anybody who complains about it will just be discredited as a "conspiracy theorist."
The problem with doing it again are the crazies. And backing people in to a corner will push the slightly crazy over the edge.
Once the crazies see that there is no alternative, they will go after the Elitists. And since they are crazy, they will succeed.
This information can be useful for starting a revolt, but this information is not interesting to our top prosecutors.
Too true. I've repremanded my state "representative" for not pushing for removal of our AG for gross incompetance and derelection of duty. There are proven, documented illegal acts during the last election but no one has been proceduted.
The industry that I'm in - as well as my hobbies - don't tolerate idiots.
I also see lots of backlash against Woke trash. ex: Disney has postponedhei
Snow White re-telling because of the feedback they have gotten.
The amount of Woke signalling has also decreased significantly. Nearly allf
the signage that I used to see about "BLM" and "Trust the science" is gone.
No. People who vote Democrat are stupid, lazy people. They want to be "big" people, but don't have the ability to be more than burger flippers. Theyhin
that the Democrat policies will pull everyone up, but the reality is that it will drag everyone down - as has been proven time and time again. But these people don't care as long as there is no one "above" them.
Which is why I don't watch TV anymore. I haven't listened to radio for over
years now. It's just propaganda or "bread and circuses".
It got replaced with the "more than 2 genders" signalling, but I have also not heard as much of that the past couple of months. My guess is that it will eventually get replaced with "Trump is bad" signalling.
But, around my area it seems, all the virtual signalling has gone. But the Trump stuff is still clearly visible. Keep in mind that we travel through som
rural areas, so my perception is certainly skewed.
No, "stupid" in that they think that they are important and deserve that high wage. And that what they have will go on forever (i.e. no saving and paying off debts faster).
I remember listening to layed-off UAW members whining about how they can't fin
that job that pays at a professional level (for a no education or experience job) where they only have to actually work 4 hours per day.

I also travel through mostly rural areas. In the area I live in, there never was really much virtue signalling. I had to travel to Lexington
or Leftyexcrementholeville to see it publically. Otherwise, it was
just on the news.
LOL. Shouldn't the UAW help them do so? I thought that was one of the things the union was for?
There is some sarcasm in those questions. ;)
Around the main town where I am, there were a good number of virtual signalers
But I've noticed in the last year, those signals have disappeared. My wife and I walk the area several times a week, so we notice things like that.
I've known a good number of union workers in my time. I've also had to deal with the unions. It became extremely clear to me that the union only had the union's best interest at heart. It tolerated workers only to get their union dues.
I remember when GM robotized one of their plants. The UAW was up in arms over
the "lost jobs!", right up until GM told the UAW that they would pay the union
dues of the robots to the UAW. Then there was no problem with the robots.

Now that you mention it, I did sometimes see a pride flag or a BLM sign
in a window somewhere. Still do, but they don't seem to be
multiplying.
a job. When the former (non-union) HR person from the strike days
showed up to visit, they all gathered around him as if welcoming back a hero. I asked one of the guys why that was. At some point during or after the strike, they realized he was the only one who reallly cared
if they had a job or not.
That doesn't surprise me a bit. Most people seemed to have that
figured out, but I have noticed lately that some folks around our age
seem to have forgotten that... or maybe they were just virtue
signalling during the recent UAW strike.

That's probably the major reason why the unions still have at least some support in the ranks. The unions still have some people who try to do what is
supposed to be their job.

I think you misunderstood. The guy who did his job was a non-union
member of management, i.e. one of the people they were striking
*against*. The union workers came to realize he was the only one who really cared if they had a job or not, and that their union didn't care
at all.

OOoo.. Yes. I missed that.
But it goes to show that the union Narrative of "this is a battle between management and the worker" is mostly false. There is middle ground, but the big unions want to take it all.

There are times when I could agree there is a battle between "upper" management and the worker,
but that is usually because upper management
is either incompetent or has already decided they are getting out of whatever business they are in.
