@oldeskooll @DavidKimbrough1 They are striking so they don’t die from unsafe conditions. How do you not get this? — PolitiTweet.org

@_leosantos I said at the time that I disagreed with Sanders position. My point is Biden saying if you don’t have symptoms you can go was a reckless statement that ignores asymptomatic carriers and their devestating impact. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@_leosantos If you want to discuss what surrogates or spokespeople said, there’s a lot worse in Biden world. I think Shakir’s statement was reckless as well. Sanders told people to follow CDC guidelines, which, if followed, mean you don’t go. — PolitiTweet.org

@nedvanzandt Please point out what is untrue above. — PolitiTweet.org

@DavidKimbrough1 I’m advocating that we listen to essential workers and support their demands for safe working conditions and paid sick leave. That is why they’re striking and I support them. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@oldeskooll @DavidKimbrough1 Striking for safe work conditions is self-centered? So you want people to agree to die so you can get your order? That is the epitome of self-importance. — PolitiTweet.org

@Jable35526152 What if someone close to you got sick and died because of that one day? Do you hear yourself? None of this can be defended. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@sjdemas These are all facts. And people can assess their importance for themselves. Are any of the above responsible things for people in positions of authority or prominence good things to have done? Because Trump is absolutely horrendous, it doesn’t excuse reckless behavior of others. — PolitiTweet.org

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName Which is why I am drawing attention to it, while you shit on workers. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName You just made my point. Thanks. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName You should do whatever you think is most effective. But shitting on striking low wage workers ain’t it. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@TJWOX Uh... You may want to look into nurses marching in front of their hospitals demanding the exact same things. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName Since you’re so concerned, I assume you’ve been calling these companies nonstop right? You’re just taking a break from that to take to twitter to shit on workers striking because they’re in danger? That’s how you’re addressing this? Got it. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName So you’ve been calling these companies demanding they implement safe workplaces for their essential workers? You’ve been banging the drums on this and know better than the actual workers who are facing these conditions? They deserve to wait in unsafe conditions so you can order? — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName Oh yes. It’s that simple. History is filled with examples of this working. Oh wait. No it isn’t. That actually never works. Striking actually does work. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName Why do you think they are striking? — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@theyodude @JubJubIsMyName None of it is fun and games. If you want essential workers to work, provide them with safe conditions and appropriate safety and cleaning gear. — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@DavidKimbrough1 Don’t order from these companies, spread the word that workers are striking, report on their conditions, let the workers know people are behind them. What’s your point? — PolitiTweet.org

jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill

@Jable35526152 Is it true or not? Is he the front runner for the Democratic nomination? Do his words matter? Have you seen the stories of people who got sick working polls and voting that day? — PolitiTweet.org

@JoshuaEli23 @PaulRizzo504 Cuomo is also moving full steam ahead with cutting social benefits, terrible criminal justice policies and refuses to take serious and urgent measures to address the spread in jails and prisons. — PolitiTweet.org

I support the workers at Amazon and Instacart striking for safe work conditions in the face of this deadly pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump refused to take coronavirus seriously, downplayed it, didn’t listen to scientists and doctors. DiBlasio downplayed seriousness of the spread. DiSantis refused to close beaches. Biden told people to go to polls if they didn’t have symptoms. FOX News spread lies. — PolitiTweet.org
