I kinda didn’t like this Platner guy before all of this stuff started dropping but at this point I’m convinced they’re trying to make me like him more.

Basically everything that happens to me these days can be explained by the political beliefs and analysis offered by the Bread & Roses caucus of DSA.

@keisisqrl The most common refrain from liberals opposed to socialist proposals, candidates, organizing efforts, etc is “I’m a socialist but.” The word outright doesn’t mean the same thing to them, which is in some sense good for us but in this other way creates new challenges.

@alliecsays the right wing church weirdos coming to metro council meetings with signs about how our trans rights legislation is “Marxist infiltration” have surprisingly nailed it

Time to reset the “days since supposed trans ally did something transphobic” sign to 0.

It has never not been 0.

Same song and dance everywhere I guess. They'll lie on us in NYC, they'll lie on us in Louisville, they'd probably lie on us on the Moon or in Narnia but if there isn't a difference why are all the big money donors and party insiders lining up on the other side?

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

It would take far more than a month to honor the contributions of queer and transgender New Yorkers.

From the Cercle Hermaphroditos in 1895, the first trans advocacy group in the United States, to the drag balls of the Harlem Renaissance, to the Stonewall uprising, to the Lesbian Herstory Archives, to ACT UP!, founded in 1987 as queer people fought for their lives while the Reagan administration looked away, New York City's history has long been shaped by queer and trans New Yorkers.

To all our queer and trans neighbors: you deserve a City where you can afford to live safely, openly, and joyfully.

Happy Pride, New York City.

@Sarah_pdx You can’t really improve a municipal budget without doing something about the biggest expenditure. It’s been a key plank in everything our chapter has done for nearly a decade.

@LukewSavage I was thought this quote was funny because Churchill was a Conservative as a young man, switched to the Liberals, then switched to back to the Conservatives later.

The era of feel-good, do-good socialism is behind us. The working class must seize the economy and the state and remake them to meet our needs. That is the goal and it always has been.

I’ve stopped trying to learn the name of new shops or restaurants on Goss Avenue, I just start referring to it in my head as “_____ AF” and assume it’s not very good

I worry that Wembanyama will get caught up in the distractions of New York City, like the Rose Reading Room at the public library or the upcoming conference on participatory futures at The New School
