@ButchWare You can name call all you want. Where did you build? What did you build? Blaming voters in a state you have no roots where an alienated political machine crushes options was a corny move and you know it. Get on the ground get traction next time before you run for fucking Governor
@DumpBothParties@ButchWare I know because there was no motion in the communities in California where people like me are rooted, cause he didn’t do that work. He has a perfectly good analysis and better positions than any other candidates but he shouldn’t have talked this shit.
@DumpBothParties@ButchWare Got it. Thanks for the correction. Doesnt change the bad faith of this post, nor the fact that he didnt build a base here & that this run for governor was without substance & the vote shaming of people in a state thats politically strangled in Sacramento shows lack of perspective
In any case, beware of any takes on California’s political dysfunction that chalk it up to some half assed musings about the political DNA of the residents, the layouts of the cities, or any “analysis” that’s ahistorical and doesn’t consider the history of land holding in CA.
California is one of the most corrupt oligarchic political messes in the country. As much as people pit California & Texas against one another, they are incredibly similar, & both have huge gaps between their political ecosystems and their actual people, and it crushes populism.
@harbingerofwoke The whole list shows that very little homework was done and that dsa LA knows nothing about the shit they claim to know about. It’s beyond embarrassing and sad for all.
Remember when Zohran promised you that he would arrest people wanted by ICC warrants if they ever stepped foot in NYC?
Will we ever evaluate the results of the electoral strategy?
No matter what you think your politics are, this is a huge flip flop from her earlier positioning on this issue, and if you think oversight and police commissions do anything good, I have many bridges to sell you.
Looks like Nithya added her public safety plan.
I’m curious to know what is meant by “backing the police commission and its office of inspector general.”
@katewillett Ur half right. The unions have relationships with the tops of the Dem Party. The progs bowing 4 bass r doing what they did last time she ran, which is making sure spots will be opened to climb the Dem ladder. The unions offer that. Has nothing to do with progressive goals for LA
