In 2019, everyday Chileans took to the streets to banish the vestiges of US-backed dictatorship, austerity & neoliberalism.
In 2020 they voted & won a new constitution.
Today, they elected a young leftist president over a reactionary peddling nostalgia for dictatorship.

Liberals: Can't we just make them wear funny hats instead?
If I wanted to change the culture of a police department - particularly if it were going through training or reorganization - I might rename them ‘Guardians’ - literally a protector or defender - and adopt a different color scheme. Minneapolis Guardians has a nice ring to it.

What's 1.44% of your paycheck in dues when union members average 25% higher pay?
Dues are only expensive if you're underpaid
Amazon & Starbucks tell workers, Don't unionize, You'll be paying "onerous"union dues
But many workers say the benefits of unions hugely outweigh the cost of dues
