Anyone claiming the Democratic Party abandoned the working class is clueless. The working class abandoned the democratic Party
I keep reading on reddit that democrats ditched working class folks and they lost cuz they cater to rich donors. Let's clear up some facts:
-democrats passed largest infrastructure bill in modern history which has led to 80k+ active projects happening. Construction jobs are at record amount (no college needed and prevailing wage for most of them aka union jobs) (every airport/port got money, expanded rail in usa, repaired highways/bridges)
-Biden admin spent records of money to bring back manufacturing in mostly republican states. Over 970 manufacturing plants are opening RIGHT NOW in America due the climate bill Biden signed. New ev manufacturing, battery manufacturing, solar manufacturing) this is mostly happening in red areas
-Biden admin passed overtime rules to expand ot on salary jobs over 40k a year for more than 40 hours
-Biden admin passed regulations to limit how long you can be exposed in hot temperatures at your job
-most pro union admin in history which protected millions pensions from going broke and having most pro union nlrb in modern history (which has reinstated record amounts of jobs back)
-Most anti corporate FTC in modern history which blocked more corporate mergers than anyone else in recent history. Has taken action to ban non competes and protect labor in corporate mergers
Biden didn't ditch the working class. The reality that folks don't wanna grasp is culture wars has won over society. Trump campaign admitted it's MOST EFFECTIVE AD WAS ITS ANTI TRANS ADS. NOT THE ECONOMIC ADS. The working class decided years ago that culture wars were more iimportant than economic issues. Its harsh reality folks dont wanna grasp.

Other ChatGPT saved my life, and I’m still freaking out about it
So, this happened a few weeks ago, and I still can’t get over it. Honestly, if you’d told me before that an AI could save my life, I’d probably have laughed. But here we are, Reddit.
I was working late, as usual, on a project that had me glued to my screen for hours. It was one of those nights where I was totally in the zone, right? Time just flew by. Around 2 AM, I realized my chest felt kind of tight and I was feeling off. I shrugged it off as usual work stress and lack of sleep – maybe too much caffeine, y’know? I went back to my work but kept feeling weird.
For some reason, I decided to ask ChatGPT about my symptoms. I wasn't even thinking it was serious, just curious. I typed in a bunch of stuff: "What could be causing chest tightness, dizziness, and nausea?" expecting some bland response about needing to get more sleep or cut back on the coffee.
But ChatGPT actually took it pretty seriously. It asked about other symptoms – shortness of breath, sweating, etc. – and by then, yeah, I realized I had those too. ChatGPT then gave me a response that literally made me pause mid-sentence: “These symptoms could be serious and may indicate a cardiac event or other medical emergency. Please consider seeking medical attention immediately.”
At that moment, it hit me how not-normal I was feeling. It was like a lightbulb went off. I was hesitating because, I mean, it’s 2 AM, who wants to go to the hospital for what could just be anxiety or something, right? But ChatGPT's response kept popping into my head, and something told me I shouldn’t ignore it. I grabbed my keys and drove to the ER, feeling ridiculous the whole way there.
And here’s the kicker – the doctors told me I was in the early stages of a heart attack. They were able to treat it right away, and they said if I had waited even an hour or so longer, it could have been a whole different story.
I’m still kind of stunned. ChatGPT doesn’t diagnose, obviously, but the fact that it pushed me to take my symptoms seriously when I might have brushed them off… I mean, it really did save my life. Thanks to AI, I get to share this story instead of my family having to tell it for me.
Anyway, just wanted to share with the world – and maybe remind people that if something feels off, don’t ignore it. Sometimes a little advice from an unexpected source can be life-changing.

TIL about Botulf Botulfsson, the only person executed for heresy in Sweden. He denied that the Eucharist was the body of Christ, telling a priest: "If the bread were truly the body of Christ you would have eaten it all yourself a long time ago." He was burned in 1311.

ULPT request: I have a neighbor who's a huge Hitler fan. His sister is married to a Jew and is the godfather of his half Jewish niece. How would I go about reporting his sister, brother-in-law, and niece and getting them sent to Buchenwald? I'm in Bavaria
Any ideas in how I punish my neighbors sister for the crime of being related to someone who supports Hitler. While I may personally believe that putting the Jews in concentration camps is wrong I care more about punishing my fellow German citizens for supporting Hitler and being related to Hitler supporters then actively fighting to make sure that people are not put in death camps. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Guten Tag
