Nominating Pedro Pascal for his 5 total minutes of screen time in The Last of Us season 2 but snubbing Diego Luna in Andor is insane. I'm going to shoot myself live onstage at the Emmys
It’s a reminder of how fragile the human body is. We’re used to media characters getting up from falls that in reality are likely to be fatal. Andor does blunt force trauma really, really well.
@liltoebeanss@philosophymeme0 I think he knows that but thats part of the joke? Like the dad in the meme is saying he isnt working maybe around the house with chores or maybe with employment, which is why its paired with the video of them fighting
Mamdani could halt the sale of stolen Palestinian land in NYC tomorrow. As mayor, he could direct NYC Consumer Protection to prosecute brokers marketing West Bank settlement property for deceptive practices, misrepresentation of location, and failure to disclose material title risks. He could shut down sales events, fine promoters, revoke permits, enforce bans on unpermitted commercial use of non-commercial spaces, and refer brokers for state licence suspension or revocation.
This is routine consumer and zoning law. He is choosing not to act.
Mamdani: "We’re not running away from the Democratic Party. We’re going back to what the party used to be. You think about FDR. You think about the New Deal. That’s what the Democratic Party once was. That’s what it could be again.”
Mamdani is basically admitting here that he is not a socialist, but a social Democrat like FDR who believes in saving capitalism and rehabilitating the Democratic party.
The purpose of the New Deal was not to bring about a socialist economy where workers own the means of production. The purpose of the New Deal was to save capitalism by throwing labor a few crumbs.
As the material conditions of the working class continue to decline as a result of capitalism consolidating wealth into fewer and fewer hands, we are entering into a new period of revolutionary potential.
Mamdani, AOC, and DSA are funneling this revolutionary energy right back into a Democratic party where it will be used not to bring about socialism, but to once again save capitalism from itself just like FDR did.
This will ultimately lead to the working class being stuck inside this vicious system where labor is exploited to generate wealth for corporations and billionaires. A better world is certainly possible, but this requires the people to make a clean break from the two parties that exist to uphold capitalism.
