Fun fact, actually the drummer of SOAD is a Trump supporter. Serj has said he's mystified about it. You're right about the other three members though.

"Far left" here, we generally understand the need to vote blue no matter who in this election. It's pretty obvious.
Sure, if you want to phrase it that way. Just slightly different motivation.
The point is to get us talking about it. I'd say they succeeded.
Even if this were true (which it isn't), the penalty for bigotry isn't indiscriminately killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians.
It must be something more substantial in this case, tearing the windshield wiper off wouldn't brick the truck
Not defending Tesla, but that wasn't a cybertruck
Because the short notice sick days weren't in the agreement that some of the unions ratified. That was on top of the agreement that he imposed on them, which some of them had already ratified as written. I'm not happy that he did that, I think they should've been allowed to go on strike anyways and get all that they could from management, but at least he didn't just force it on them and then leave it at that.
Oh stop it
You're right, "On deadline day, the parties reached an agreement on an updated contract that included the biggest wage increases in 47 years. Over the next several weeks, while acknowledging that the agreement was less than perfect, the IBEW and several of its fellow coalition unions voted to ratify the agreement. A handful of others, however, did not, instead threatening a December freight rail strike."
Biden enforced this agreement despite only some of the 12 unions voting to ratify it, and then worked behind the scenes to get them the extra short notice sick days too. Nobody ever gets everything, but this certainly sounds like getting something that about half of the unions ratified anyways, plus more sick days. How can you discount getting them a better contract just because it wasn't absolutely everything they asked for? It's still a vast improvement.
There were 11 other unions involved. Their members (the site said they combine for over 100k workers) got these benefits too, they negotiated together for a deal that would affect all of them.
I get hating Biden, I really do. He's not nearly far enough left for me either. But do you have anything to back that claim up besides your word?
