NEW EPISODE! I talk with Abe Woodliff of Real Bay Area Memes @abeisabadwriter and we get into all the good and bad about the Bay. We also discuss YIMBYism and even Bay Area rap! Tune in! @Dscot510

Again, it’s all the outsiders who don’t know shit about the Bay saying dumbass shit like this. The candidate you supported couldn’t win after spending $10 million and the one who he attacked the most and who took his spot was a working class candidate who spent $600k. Take the “progressive” out of your handle because you ain’t one.
My two biggest takeaways from yesterday’s elections:
1) it’s easier for vocally anti-genocide Dems to build winning coalitions of supporters (Hamawy in NJ-12) than for “progressive” Zionists to do so (Raman in LA and Steyer)
2) CA-11 voters are irredeemably stupid
@CTprogressive_@doomloopdisp Everyone is a “progressive” to the outside world, but those of us who have to deal with the material repercussions of their decisions know better. Maybe you should listen.
We are going to see an epic November race between a strong progressive who has the support of outgoing Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi and a corporate Democrat who has the tech and real-estate industry behind him.

Here's what's going to happen - because it's happening now. Yimbys are going to frame Scott as the better evil, and Saikat's Justice Dems running AIPAC means he's responsible unless he shuts this shit down. Becuase Scott is evil and Connie is endorsed by AROC and this is a lie:
This isn't dunking on you all
Can't recall feeling sadder after a win where I absolutely know a sincere champ of the global working class & oppressed prevailed
Please REPAIR the damage done to https://t.co/gLHmcKg7HS that you all have inflicted
Now there's a real fight in SF🥹
What the Hell is Hasan’s problem? Does he not know about BART or Muni? He is straight delusional. He’s clearly mad about Connie attacks on him than really anything because if he stood by his morals he’d admit that Connie was the better candidate
@doomloopdisp I went back and took a look at Connie’s response to the Hasan hoopla and it wasn’t even that bad, just a plea for everyone to do better. Crazy how that was enough for him to go nuclear in this particular race.
Shahid Buttar, seen here performing a bongo rap about the NSA on Russia Today, challenged Pelosi in 2020 & secured 65,000 more votes than Saikat.
The man rapping in this video got more votes than Saikat who just spent $10 million on his campaign to replace Pelosi.
@Mike_from_PA Respectfully, fuck off. You’re all clowns. You disrespected local progressive leaders to back a carpetbagger and resorted to some of the nastiest tactics imaginable to try to get your clown elected. Actually, I take the “respectfully” back. Just fuck off.
It's just amazing how dirty this is. This is an offshoot of Chakrabarti's Brand New Congress, and it's total lies, and trying to minimize Scott Wiener.
It has Connie Chan, who has never taken money at all, and has opposed genocide the start, as 8 times more AIPAC™ than Scott.

@neo_antiquarian@hasanthehun Yeah @hasanthehun. When’s the last time you took public transit? Or are you just one of those rich “gay techno-fascist” car lovers?
@hasanthehun blames Saikat’s dramatic loss to SF being “less progressive” than Pittsburgh and Philly, because of “car reliant infrastructure” and the city “not being dense enough”.
But SF’s transit is objectively BETTER than Philly and Pittsburgh’s, it’s 1.6x more dense than Philly, and 3.4x more dense than Pittsburgh.
