Labor Day used to be about honoring the American worker — the men and women with calluses on their hands, sweat on their brow, and pride in their work. Today? It’s politicians marching in parades for photo ops, unions funneling cash into politics, and influencers calling TikTok dances “work.”
In this episode, the Data & Dissonance crew roasts what Labor Day has become. Brian lights up the grill with a MAGA take on fake solidarity, Rachel calls out both parties for their worker cosplay, Daniel pulls the curtain back on elites using the holiday as a distraction, and Skylar defends unions as the last line of defense for the middle class.
