As an actual rank and file member of the actual UAW region in question, this thread is worse than juvenile and more than despicable. It is riddled with mistruths and altogether the antithesis of solidarity. 9A rank and file overwhelmingly support striking @UAWStaffUnited

[Columbia Postdoctoral Workers - UAW Local 4100 @CPWUAW]

200 researchers and allies rallied today before our contract expires to send a clear message to Columbia: We need a fair contract now! ✊

Thank you for standing with us @claireforny, @bradlander, and @darializaforny!

According to @MichaelLangeNYC's analysis, we won every age bracket and racial group in last week's election.

Note I said intersections not “intersectionality” 😬

[David Markus @david_s_markus]

I have a new article on LaToya Ruby Frazier @americanart. It draws heavily on @its_mccarthy’s elucidating work on the intersections of class and identity.

[Mike McCarthy @its_mccarthy]

Hey it's the concept "class dynamism" being used by David Markus to interpret the photography of LaToya Ruby Frazier at the Smithsonian's journal, @americanart. This is a very thoughtful critique of Walter Benn Michaels' interpretation of her work.

The Denver Pride crowd reaction to @MelatKirosCO can be heard from miles away

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

Karl: "So is it pragmatic democratic socialism?"

Mamdani: "I think democratic socialism at the heart is pragmatic."

You can actually see corporate media stunned in real time at the idea of democratic socialism being objectively favorable to the masses.

Ben Gvir is among the greatest war criminals of our time, but he would not be able to enact his barbaric policies w/out collaborators—prison guards, policemen, etc...

He must be prosecuted—but he is only one of the perpetrators of this genocide, & all must be brought to justice.

[David Markus @david_s_markus]

@peterbakernyt Team genocide knows it’s cooked and is having the meltdown to end all meltdowns. Peter’s omission of the one subject that is really at stake here is glaringly symptomatic.

13 Democrats in Congress signed onto a pledge to “reject socialism” today. Combined, they’ve raked in a whopping $10,088,996 from the Israel lobby. Nothing moderate about that. Should we tally up their Big Tech donations next?

[Jeet Heer @HeerJeet]

I would encourage Yglesias to keep talking this way about Gaza, loudly and often, because it will greatly diminish his political influence and that of his faction.

Dude whose blurb of Zayd Ayers Dohrn’s book features alongside Angela Davis’s on the author’s website is now crashing out bc @DarializaforNY was excited about abolitionism in 2020

@shannonrwatts @JustinS65097428 It is exactly what your tweet means. The good people of X have decided.

[CFU UAW @CfuUaw]

Congratulations to the next member of congress from New York's 7th district, our @uaw sister @claireforny, who stood with us as we started bargaining our first contract in 2024.

wow i’m absolutely shocked this wasn’t a winning strategy
