Yes mum, I didn't do the dishes like I promised. But by promising to do the dishes, I helped create the discursive conditions through which the dishes could get done
@NathanJRobinson Salmon are endangered in Washington state and if this trend continues they could go extinct.
Also the tribes along the river seem to agree with her. Why doesn't that carry weight?
if you're going to try to imitate that fiery oratory style you have to be willing to sell it physically and hasan piker is obviously too self conscious to do so
completely stilted, if you're going to start with the whole yelling passionately thing I'm gonna need you to be slamming that podium and shaking it back and forth like it owes you fucking money
Anyone that’s been around the movement long enough has seen Fergie Chambers. Despite wealth large enough to easily not have to work for the rest of his life, he always spends his time among the people, fighting for justice. Attached is an unedited, never before seen interview with Fergie by Geese at a 2023 Stop Cop City protest we were covering. In it you can see the unbridled “revolutionary joy” within Fergie, something he carries with him everywhere he goes. He’s someone who, regardless of any potential disagreement one may have with the totality of his politics, we must defend. Fergie’s arrest in the wake of the Prairieland arrests and other autocratic repression marks a new era of fascism that threatens our movements legality. To fight for Fergie’s freedom is to fight for us all.
Free Fergie Chambers.
@funkinatrix@ergotloaf@Slimeonhersnail To be clear, it doesn’t necessarily mean they were sincere even a little bit. It sounds like they intentionally twisted both the question and answer from the orientation so that they could craft a tweet that was guaranteed to piss off the maximum number of people lol
@ergotloaf@Slimeonhersnail I was thinking this exact thing, every tweet since the initial “just had my DSA orientation and they said I’m DSA Right!” was so perfectly crafted to cause factional chaos that I can’t help but think they were doing it entirely on purpose
I'm repeating myself at this point but the fact that AOC isn't communicating with us *now* and that the DSA isn't launching the campaign is a sign that the idea of any "DSA presidency" in any meaningful sense is dead in the water
Crazy that this was sent from NYCDSA’s treasurer to all NPC members after the vote yesterday. Openly threatening a split with a detailed breakdown of how it would go, a breakdown that I have to assume wasn’t made immediately after the vote. Seems like this is their actual plan.
I have seen this exact phenomenon so many times, a person posts about just joining DSA and then within 3 weeks they’re posting the most heinous sectarian bullshit you’ve ever seen in your life lmao it’s so awesome I love it
@PunishedCommie@LeftyWinter this has been my favorite subplot of the recent nonsense, this person posted like a month ago that they had just joined and were told in their intro meeting they were on the Right of the org, and now theyre spamming these posts
