A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

I doubt he cares about holidays at all, but he very much cares about removing a holiday that is specifically relevant to not white people.
I was taking with a family member yesterday and said I'd be shocked if Juneteenth is still a holiday next year.
I doubt he notices a holiday TBH, it's just the same as the previous day.
I'm sure the racist ghouls around him were complaining about Juneteenth.
yea, which is the only real reason he posted about it. It's just a normal day for him, but he realized he can capitalize on it and make it a PR stunt like always
What a fucking moron along with all his voters
They need that tax revenue to make up for all the tax cuts for the wealthy.
keep up the talk fat man and we'll have a paid holiday for every finger and toe we cut off.
Remember back in the middle ages, when everyone was sporting an axe and knew where the boss's house was?
They also had more days off back then, more time to sharpen that axe.
More holidays, but when you're a subsistence farmer, those aren't really days off, just days you don't have to work for the rent.
And worked a lot less than 40 hours a week
well, worked less than 40hrs a week for an employer. They had a ton of shit to do at home, and if they weren't married, doubly so.
My grandma used to tell me stories of how long it would take to forage for food before refridgerators
I think any European politician who said anything remotely close to this would see their careers instantly over. How is it possible that saying something like this doesn't cost them votes in the US?
Because republicans have no integrity and have cultivated a base of gibbering idiots who are happy watching others suffer even if it hurts them too
He said this specifically on Juneteenth so that his hateful voters agree, and those that work for businesses that donβt give a day off on Juneteenth get angry at the people who work for companies or the government that do.
I'd love to see him say this on the 4th of July or Christmas.
Be the change you want to see in the world and post the exact same screenshot on the 4th.
Either the reactionaries don't read the date and get pissed off, or they do read the date and get pissed off, proving to everyone else that the have the ability to use critical thinking but choose not to when it benefits their narrative.
I would, but I'm not really on any social networks where the intended audience would see the message.
His voters love the taste of the boot and the democrats are so shitty that most people just donβt bother to vote
What a piece of shit post. He's using the date to signal solidarity to his racist voters.
Come for the racism, stay for the contempt of working people in general.
300 million people can't have a single fucking day off every once in a while because it will "cost billions", while less than 10 people are hoarding over a TRILLION in wealth.
OK, start with Christmas Day. I'll wait.
lol if he actually tried this, the speed in which big companies would lobby the fuck out of it would be insane.
Sounds like the WH chef staff ran out of chicken nuggies
"MAKE LINE GO UP FOR YOUR OWNERS"
someone do the fuckin deed already, I'm so fuckin sick of this jackass and all his Republican dumbfucks
Hoffa and JFK got whacked for less than this.
Too many non-working presidents and billionaires in your country.
Truer words have not been spoken.
Donβt worry, Don, the βessential workersβ wonβt be affected.
