Neoliberals give us a world where just the well off white people have brunch.

Goddamn hippies say it like cheap eggs, jobs, civil rights, rule of law and the other stuff are a good thing!
/s for those slow on the uptake.
Well some would, 70% of Americans would still be paycheck to paycheck.
We need to expect better.
Maybe they'd be at brunch, I imagine I'd still be attending protests in solidarity against the genocide in Gaza. I doubt I would even be able to afford to go out to brunch under Harris, considering I couldn't under Biden.
What is the point of this bullshit pining for a mythical "good America?" This country fucking sucks and has sucked for longer than I've been alive. Maybe instead of smugly claiming "well my status quo would be better," let's accept that we're a dogshit country and use this as an opportunity to start fresh.
