US politics
a president publicly supporting the right to organize *after* being elected is huge, actually https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/02/28/amazon-biden-union-alabama/ . it doesn't look like a lot, but that's a big shift from https://nwlaborpress.org/2017/01/the-obama-years/

uspol bull
manufacturing consent
when i heard about biden's relief bill only including $1400 to individuals, i thought "more like relief BULL!" but when it came out he was going to increase the federal minimum wage to $15/hr, that made me think, maybe that's an acceptable tradeoff. that would be huge for so many people.
of course, since then i learned it would be over the course of *years*. not great... and by now, we see that biden didn't even really care about having it in there, and everyone let it drop out. (you can try to argue he "cared" but that's meaningless when you have someone saying "i think it's going to fail" repeatedly without even visibly fighting for it)
so now i'm back to, decisively, relief bull. but you can see how someone might get tricked into thinking any of this is remotely okay

food nothing, religion
also the apple is probably only considered a superfood because of that whole adam and (st)eve thing
food nothing
this site i'm looking at says things like apples and berries and spinach and fish are superfoods. but last i checked, they're just uh... foods? how do you even call them super when they've been around since long before we were even here, and they're, like... some of our earliest examples of foods? aren't they?
it kinda feels to me like we've flooded the food universe with so much crap of our own creation that we have to call some of the Original Foods "super" in comparison
