1000000%- as a literal Columbia Journalism grad (80k in debt later…), this is almost complete true. There are comrades too, but lots of libby west-wing types. I will say, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the class consciousness of some of my colleagues. at least when it comes to how our own office is run
lol I got the same response. lukewarm on gun control?
my partner found her grandfather’s nazi medals (he was a 15 year old mailman in farming towns in north germany at the end of the war) and hid that shit away from her entire (more reactionary) family. We were still creeped out that he kept them though.
as long as you use it like a debit card (don’t spend more than you have and autopay the whole amount every month) you should be okay. the issue comes up when you actually use it like a super high-interest rate loan. avoid that debt at all costs! (I know easier said than done)
as someone who has organized a tenant union, the person you really want on your side is someone who acts as like a social glue/ connecting tissue in the trailer park. in the apartment building I helped to organize, it was the neighbor who said hi to everyone, knew everyone’s business, and had been there 30 years. If there’s someone like that, they would be a HUGE get, and probably have tons of insitutional knowledge about the place and the people who may be on board/ may not.
I’d approach that person (hoping they exist) and complain about the issues you have been having and ask about their problems.
everything above is great advice too
I was the lower middle class kid in college with all the upper class kids. no surprise I became the dealer :)
Nope, I’m a journalist at a pretty mainstream pub, so it would be VERYYYYY risky for my job. Inside the trusted parts of my union though? 10000%
