can we make the activist publish regurgitations of queer twitter discourse? thank you. Necessary for the youth wing of he/theys

We don’t disagree on that. Our current “pragmatic,” moderate Mayor terribly mismanaged our budget and I’m excited for some good “DSA-type” governance to end patronage and corruption, make our services more effective, and make sure our tax dollars go further.

I do not say this lightly: I am tired of this histrionic bullshit about a damn mayoral election in which we're arguing about some lib that finally agreed to BDS as a bare minumum

I think the most disappointing part about Nithya’s campaign is how disorganizing it has been both for our chapter and nationally. This was the most contentious endorsement in chapter history. If I’m not excited (as a DSA sicko) about her campaign, why would average Angelenos be?

months of cut throat debate and increasing animosity that culminates in the NPC kicking the can down the road fermenting even more division in the Org. sensical is not a word I would use to describe this process

There are like five employers of >500 people left in American journalism, all of which require that you tolerate working with open racists like Kirchick. Also: this exception for anti-Muslim bigotry in U.S. society goes a long way toward explaining body counts in the Middle East.

every conversation I've had over past few months w/ arab family & friends has been complete withdrawal and disillusionment with US politics, including socialists and Zohran. decades and millions of our people dead, the immediate backtracking on our humanity is a well-worn feeling

as a dsa member u shouldn’t be weird & paternalistic towards ydsa if you haven’t had to replace most of your core leaders every year so your chapter can sustain itself long term :)

once, in the late Bush era, I was at a DC Halloween party where someone with a faux-pregnant belly, a statue of liberty torch and, like, a Quran or something told me they were "the birth pangs of democracy in the Middle East"
