Its /so/ baffling since the 2020s working age voter pool was a far more favourable demographic for Labour than the pre-1980s working age voter pool!
But, the 2020s worker is a woman with a degree, and the (mythologised) pre-1980s worker was big strong man down mines, and Politics Is All Gender Now.

The tragedy of the Biden administration is it did not have to be a blip and interregnum in the Long Trump Era, but thanks to choices made, largely his own, it will at best be remembered as an attempt to govern without doing politics, a failure compounded by his disastrous support for genocide abroad

The ideology that was sold to tech workers by tech owners was that the workers were not like other workers, that they were very special boys who were entitled to high salaries and cushy perks due to the STEMy brilliance required to do their job. Easy to see the lie now that it's falling apart.

youre doing 70 hours a week screwing in one bolt over and over for 20% more than what you’d make on a farm, a job which doesnt exist anymore bc of automation. aqi is 230, weather today is acid rain, you share an apt with seven strangers. future generations will also live like this.

Look, women no longer do shit for free is actually at the root of a lot of social disruption. The question is whether you think the solution is women going back to being unpaid and unprotected by their own labor.
