Wait, you guys are getting President's Day off work??

[-] JeSuisUnHombre@lemm.ee 52 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, making election day a national holiday doesn't help those of us who don't get most holidays off.

Right. Congress would need to amend the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) to mandate that employers give national holidays off to employees for this to apply to everyone.

Protesting for fair rest days has taken a back seat to letting women marry women and also ensuring women don't fucking die around childbirth or complications getting there, which seem to be very pressing and fundamental issues we seem to have lost value in solving. Also, issues like black slavery and prisoner slavery and women's slavery and rapists choosing their kids' mom's and something about the overwhelming prevalence of fucking boomsticks in every part of that and everything else, like schools.

It's like there's a million mind-numbingly simple things we should have solved trivially with an "of course I'm not a dick" vote that we seem to have stalled on or went backward about, and these are pushing the more nuanced class war issues onto the back back back burner pending their resolution.

Fuck this exhausting shit and the effort to just keep a country going where people are dying and blaming Biden for it. Secede from those richbitch fuckwits and their hillbilly fan base. When all their people are dying and dead, buy the land to settle the debt and then reunify better. We don't tolerate intolerance, and maybe that means we can't save this version of the matri-uh, union, and maybe we need to start working on the next.
