@carolinekwan What troubles me are “leftists” who are only concerned with the “rehabilitation” of a man who suffered no consequence for digitally raping the women closest to him. In fact, the women who've had AI sex abuse material made of them are silenced for the sake of protecting predators
@harbingerofwoke What part of "The communists disdain to conceal their views and aims" is unclear? This "secret socialist" reasoning is a paper thin excuse used over and over for the purpose of laundering zionist candidates in ostensibly socialist circles.
@Amy_Siskind This is the problem about how rape culture is talked about in America: education and awareness is not enough. These men KNOW what they're doing is bad, they laugh it up because they know they won't be held accountable and they fundamentally don't view women as human beings.
it’s easy to lay the blame on this woman for stubbornly refusing care. It’s much harder to criticize the capitalist state for imposing this existential fear of what it means to accept you’re not healthy in the US: a mountain of medical debt that will assuredly ruin your life.
Guys, I begged a co-worker tonight to go to the ER and get seen. She refused. We laid on top of her car at the end of the shift begging her. She still said no. She had been throwing up and had arm pain. She went home, laid down to rest, and passed away.
A year ago people were trying to address the contradictions of a socialist governing as NYC mayor and these people screamed ultra, wrecker, purity tester. Unless serious introspection is done, the same social chauvinist tendencies will repeat with the next Obama, the next Zohran
nasty nasty work, it can't be just words from zohran anymore, ice is gunning people down in the street, nypd is beating down our congresswoman, and we have to watch zohran while the heiress reads off the victim's rap sheet
@mehdirhasan This stuff has material consequences for people that aren't paid to blather all day about how to properly worship democrats. People are dying and being sex trafficked in ICE dungeons as you issue your decrees. "How much time do you want for your progress?" as James Baldwin said
@SanaSaeed When Jacob Frey and Tim Walz acted with the cops and aided ICE, nobody defended them and everyone recognized they were complicit in fascism. It shouldn't be different when Zohran Mamdani does the same, no matter if he says he's doing it in a "socialist" way.
@TimmyFacciola_ Everyone eviscerated Tim Walz in Minnesota when he acted with the cops in aiding ICE operations, nobody defended him and he was recognized as complicit in fascism. There should be absolutely zero difference when Zohran Mamdani does the same, falsely in the name of socialism.
@TimmyFacciola_ When Mamdani said "more coming soon" regarding the NYPD I guess he meant he was once again going to sick his gang of pigs on his own constituents
@CinemarxismBret Describing the Arabic language as a "pro-Hamas dogwhistle" is fucking insanity for an organization that describes itself as socialist. Totally unacceptable to claim to be pro-Palestinian and then use this zionist rhetoric to silence opposition
The fact that many of Mamdani's sycophants in DSA continue to worship his office despite this betrayal proves that the ideological argument cannot be disregarded. It's more important than ever to stress the principles of socialism in a movement that is increasingly illiterate.
“MAYOR MAMDANI, TAKE A STAND! STOP THE SALE OF STOLEN LAND!”
Protesters confront Zohran Mamdani at an Israeli October 7th event, over the sale of Palestinian land through Israeli real estate events held right here in NYC.
Mamdani once introduced the Not On Our Dime Act to stop New York nonprofits from financing illegal Israeli settlements. Yet since becoming mayor, he has not publicly advanced a comparable initiative. When protesters confronted these land sales, he condemned their rhetoric rather than announcing concrete enforcement measures against the sales themselves.
In January, I outlined four existing legal avenues his administration could pursue, from consumer protection enforcement to investigations of potentially unlawful real estate marketing. None requires waiting for the state legislature.

@GoodVibePolitik Socialists shouldn't have their actions dictated by elected officials. it's not a problem that will go away, so long as the celebrity worship of politicians occurs, the more of a liability DSA becomes, the longer the suffering of the oppressed goes on without any interruption.
@AltTooslic39510 Completely unacceptable for a so-called "socialist" organization. The longer this celebrity worship of elected officials goes on, the more this organization becomes a liability to American socialist action as a whole.
@donaldp1917 This is unacceptable for an organization that dares call itself "socialist." This isn't a problem thats going to go away. The longer this celebrity worship of elected officials goes on, the more this organization becomes a liability to American socialist action as a whole.
@boobmcnutt67 A part of my brain wants to believe that the freaks trying to say the men did nothing wrong are just bots. Unfortunately experience with men for my entire life tells me otherwise. There is so much work to be done in fixing this barbaric, patriarchal, society we live in.
Zohran is a zionist of the most dangerous variety: the smiling kind that charms leftists, co-ops movements, and destroys them from the inside. He has completely betrayed the Palestinian movement that elevated him to his position, whilst catering to the zionist's every whim.
The Talmud teaches that anyone who sustains one soul, has sustained an entire world. For generations, Jewish New Yorkers have sustained our city. Today, we are launching the first-ever municipal Strategy to Combat Antisemitism.
Together, we will ensure Jewish New Yorkers are safe and celebrated. We will invest in their protection, their history, and their future.
Our safety and our thriving are tied together.
