Summary

Today we cover the result of the Teamsters UPS contract vote, compare the data to our expectations, and relay some very odd Facebook group responses

Also: we dive into the right’s freakout over viral “Rich Men North of Richmond” singer Oliver Anthony proclaiming that America is “a melting pot” and “diversity is our strength”

We examine why the “based” right wing would have so much invested in the overnight sensation, looking into the coping (“a melting pot means everyone becomes homogeneous!”) and seething (“From Chad To Cuck At The Speed Of Light”) across Twitter, Facebook, and Substack

And Finally, we learn about the movement among Oliver Anthony fans to hold a General Strike on September 1st to, uh, protest taxes—with the help of some truly cursed Tik Toks.
