It’s 1916
You are a British officer. Your task is to draw the fairest borders possible with a new ‘Sykes-Picot’ line in the Middle East in order to prevent wars. You may set aside land to invite the Jews to settle if you wish
Biggest take away from the JVP private protest fiasco is that DSA is currently isolated from the masses. What should have been an opportunity for DSA to mobilize a protest, turned into a photo shoot for our elects. Dsa’s strategy has been working but has flaws, this shows them
@reluctantmutant@donaldp1917 It’s inauthentic. It will make us stand out less in contrast to the performative establishment wing of the Democratic Party
The photo-op just reeks of establishment Democrat performativeness. Have a feeling right wing media will really kill the DSA on this, and turn more of the American proletariat away from us
Lowkey feel the staged photo-op of DSA elects getting “arrested” is worse than Mamdami going back on arresting Netanyahu. I thought it was pretty clear that it was always an impossible campaign promise. Unfortunately the all but inevitable careerism of US politics will always win
DSA AOC Outcomes ranked
1. AOC is Endorsed by DSA but loses
2. AOC is not endorsed by DSA
3. AOC is not endorsed by DSA but wins
4. AOC is endorsed by DSA but wins
If AOC runs & DSA fully backs her & she wins, then her inevitable governance as imperial steward would completely either liquidate or disunify the org, as conflicts over opportunism and betrayal heighten to an unsustainable extent. It would likely shatter the org entirely.
@NondescriptRed Most people who think this also think the Frankfurt school is awesome. They fail to understand how “woke 1” disproved their laclau and mouffe bullshit
OFFICIAL: DSA-LA endorses Nithya Raman following a rigorous display of good faith discourse and debate in the chapter. This is a major W for mass politics in Los Angeles and beyond. Now it’s time for socialists to rally behind Nithya against Karen Bass and the Dem Establishment.
How AOC fans look at you when you say maybe we shouldn't vote for someone who can't even say YES to arresting one of the worst war criminals in human history
It’s so neat how the DSA national convention can pass a resolution explicitly barring any endorsements of people affiliated with specific zionist organizations and then chapters can just ignore that entirely
AOC’s answers to these questions lately have been really worrying. People aren’t looking for this mealy mouthed moderated language. Be direct, have conviction, & don’t play on the establishment’s terms!
Arresting Netanyahu could be a hugely popular 2028 campaign point in reality
BREAKING: President Trump says the U.S. has entered a deal with Venezuela to take control of 65 billion barrels of its oil reserves. https://t.co/34Nkdg1WYY
KRISTEN WELKER: Congressman Jolly says he is a capitalist. Would you call yourself a capitalist, or do you reject capitalism?
ANGIE NIXON: I live in a capitalistic society. I’m a small-business owner. I like to make money. I don’t see what the problem is. I’m a capitalist who believes that we need some strong regulation.
