This type of meme isn't helpful when people already think the Dem Party isn't for working class people and elites only lol. Trump listened to people issues about material needs even if he lied. It still worked. Harris and Dems went on the whole time not addressing issues with the economy. Adopting a real working class agenda and free college would do wonders and putting resources to getting the crazy folk away from Education.

Working classes don’t need healthcare or education? Quality of life is irrelevant? A strong economy doesn’t matter? One of the highest minimum wages doesn’t affect working class? I

Free college (depending on income)doesn’t matter?

i think you're missing their point. the working class does want these things, but the meme reinforces the idea that the dems only take care of the rich.

How? Does Massachusetts not have working class people in it? Is it a state comprised entirely of the wealthy?

[-] zeca@lemmy.eco.br 4 points 1 week ago

im not saying i agree with this interpretation. just that the meme reinforces an erroneous causal relation depending on the bias of the reader. im dont know these places very well, but im used to seeing govenrments treating lower class neighborhoods with less attention. its a common perception.

"the people" seem to want to change 'THEYRE SEATING THE CATS, THEYRE EATING THE DAWWGS'....so, fk if "the people" know what they want.

No it doesn't. Massachusetts is full of working class people.

I think you might be confusing cause and effect here. Perhaps the people in MA are "rich" (I would say, doing well. There are tons of working class people in MA, they're just not necessarily living in squalor) because the dems took care of them. Almost as if we have tons of data backing this up... That Democrats consistently do these types of things, while Republicans constantly walk them back.
