From the article: In December 19 thousands of Amazon workers organizing with the Teamsters launched a cascade of unfair practice strikes from coast to coast at the logistics giant.

At the picket line in Queens, New York, police arrested and released Anthony Rosario, a Teamsters organizer, and Jogernsyn Cardenas, one of the striking workers, and then threatened mass arrests before breaking the line in two to allow vans through.

But to them, they are rewarded. They get to beat and even kill minorities and poor people without consequences.

That's what happens when (at least) half of the country exclusively gets their news from one corrupt source

Bootlickers are heavy on both sides...

But sure the red is more likely to bootlick due to daddy worship ideology
