Kennedy Bartley is taking over as the next executive director of United Working Families, the group that helped elect Chicago’s new left-wing leadership. "I think when we’re talking about building true working-class, anti-racist, anti-capitalist power, we have to have a coalition, we have to have a united front."
The Working families term is an ignorant riff off of old communist literature. In the 19th and early 20th century, the fight between laborers (or workers) and capitalists was considered the front lines of progressive movements. The Worker’s Party was a popular political movement with a clear and self explanatory objective. In short, team Johnson is too dumb to even understand communism or that the status quo has purposely installed them to fail. Most communist arguments fail under strict scrutiny and specifics.

“But OUR anti-capitalist, anti-racists, marxist state will be a safe, inclusive utopia”
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Another four(4) reasons I’m glad I voted with my feet and left Taxistan over 20 years ago!!
Chicago “working” families – what does that mean?
Working at what-anything constructive or just another bunch feeding off the Government trough?
Working families sounds like people that work hard, what is really is are people looking to get paid more to do less work.
