Now that it's a wrap on the @DemSocialists Convention, we'd like to talk about the new way we've designed the internal life of our chapter chosen by membership in May: the Triangle Model.

They are winding down the financial relief provided by the CARES act and the emergency because they recognize that allowing the population to sit and think is destabilizing to capitalism.

Ancient mud mosques in the Muslim world are spectacular & sustainable. They keep us cool in summer & warm in winter, & withstand extreme weather. In search of more sustainable buildings, architects are returning to this overlooked construction material

A thread on mud Mosques…

Terrible take. People don’t hate the Met Gala bc they “hate museum fundraisers” or find fashion “valueless”. The Met Gala is an obscene display of wealth in a country where 60% of us live paycheck to paycheck. The fact that it’s on May Day this year makes it even worse.

Given that China’s justification for repression in Xinjiang literally draws from US War on Terror rhetoric and its counterinsurgency assets from US operations in the Middle East, this actually completely tracks.

@centristmarxist Imperialists are always trying to co-opt self-determination struggles, as Lenin noted. National consciousness in Tibet has always exceeded beyond the CIA and one can’t deny there’ve long been targeted campaigns to delegitimize Tibetan identity.

@centristmarxist I just don’t think that Habsburg forces in the Rhine or the US Confederacy can be considered by any metric to be oppressed nations with a claim to self-determination, unlike the case of Tibet.

Hate your job? Form a union!

Love your job? Form a union!

No matter what your stance is on your job, a union & a contract will always make it better for you and your coworkers.

Form a union!

[Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) @organizeworkers]

They call it "unionizing." Workers talking to each other about issues that are widely felt, and deeply felt, before forming what they call "organizing committees" and even..."marching on the boss." And it may happen next at YOUR job.

I wrote this piece awhile back. I look at how Cuba’s revolutionaries understand their own context, and how those insights can inform our own internationalism. Thank you to ⁦@dsapartisan⁩ for publishing! https://t.co/r9X7Sz9Xif
