You can see this in the issue of wages. You will sometimes hear stories of a place claiming to have raised wages but still having trouble keeping people.

Well, when a pandemic devastated intergenerational families of workers and there’s no childcare, people can’t go back to work

@AOC ("Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez") replied to a tweet by @AOC:

When people drop out of the workforce, it’s a pretty complicated & expensive endeavor to get them back.

The reason is bc unlike physical supply chain issues where problems are a bit more straightforward (not saying easy, but more clear), labor supply issues can be more complex.

The judge did do something about it. He gave them cover.

It's not just that only *one* Black juror has been seated in the trial of the three men charged with killing Ahmaud Arbery.

It's that the judge acknowledged the defense was using *intentional discrimination* in selecting jurors and did nothing about it.

@AOC ("Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez") replied to a tweet by @AOC:

Conservatives argue against raising wages by claiming it’ll raise prices. But that isn’t reliably supported w historic data.

However, what we’re seeing now is perhaps an ex. of prices rising when wages/benefits are *too low*- not enough workers, hurts supply chain, prices hike.

This is the worst kind of deflection and gaslighting. They're actively creating unrealistic narratives centered around Whiteness. They're doing it because they were told to. But their response is to blame us for noticing this flagrant bullshit instead of getting some integrity.

If you are worried about inflation, it’s important to understand why it’s happening: supply chain, labor, and healthcare complications. We can address these issues by investing in infrastructure, wages, healthcare &benefits.

"If the light switch was connected to clean energy, who the hell cares if you left it on? The problem is not so much the consumption — it’s the supply. [...]

Don’t give in to that shame. It’s not yours. The oil and gas industry is gaslighting you."

This guy and the Rittenhouse judge aren't even trying to hide their intentions, but there aren't many mechanisms to hold them accountable because our legal system is broken.
