The last article you’ll ever need to read about Nithya—I give you my latest honkings in Geese:
After a contentious debate that has claimed center stage in the organization's discourse, a cross-tendency group of DSA-LA leaders argues for endorsing Nithya Raman for mayor against liberal incumbent Karen Bass. The authors believe this decision will consolidate other chapter campaigns around the most high-profile race in the city, engage with the material realities of the working class, and move Los Angeles closer to DSA's ultimate political horizon. The endorsement vote begins today and runs until September 1st. If you are a member of DSA-LA, make your voice heard by casting your vote before the deadline.

Not good. Law-Gisiko supported the absolutely awful racist Mariama James.

i think what people haven’t focused on here is that this is a chapter of just under 1000 members and they’re getting weekend meeting turnout of just over 6%. that’s pretty concerning turnout and i’d be willing to bet insular votes like this are a big reason why
Yesterday at our chapter meeting we voted to sign onto SoRs letter calling on the NPC to invalidate @dsa_losangeles endorsement of self-described capitalist @nithyavraman. Free Palestine 🇵🇸🌹

Yeah he did. He wrote about people living on domes around Jupiter. He wrote about late night talk shows being on and popular in the future.

One of Lula’s most important and least well-known achievements is US capacity to sanction it into compliance is limited, because unlike Europe, Brazilians don’t need Visa or Mastercard to make payments.

Can’t forget how the Hohenzollerns had to call themselves the “King in Prussia” for like 70 years because the Habsburgs were okay if they were only “Kings” in their possession that was in Poland-Lithuania and not in Brandenburg.

it’s rly fun to see the airbnb host crash outs tbh. my first time using one was in LA, and while I was checking in the host asked me and my friends if we’d like to help clean with the guests who were checking out. I laughed and said no, bec I thought that was an obvious joke.
its just bonkers the new policy @airbnb is trying to put in place. Putting the dishes in the dishwasher, taking out the trash, pulling the sheets off the bed....they are just standard things any normal person would do when staying at a house. Why wouldn't a host be allowed to say that?

remember when people spent a month complaining about this
AOC on what she meant by ‘Woke 1.0’:
“What I was referring to, even in the context of that interview, was how we make the progressive movement one that isn’t rooted in judgment, castigation, or being closed off. To me, it’s about pivoting: fighting for the same things and not changing our principles, but doing so in a way that welcomes people, including those who perhaps weren’t always exposed to or educated about some of these issues and fights.”

I don't even feel you really have to call celebrating Lula's victory as libbing out since he's a committed leftist and this election was about like planetary survival

Harvey Milk said that ‘if a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet destroy every closet door.’ The eradication of the closet has been an ambition of queer liberation movements since forever. I’m saddened that there are people framing its endurance as a happy ending.

At this point there is a mountain of evidence that the 'DSA left' is substantially to the right of the 'DSA right'.
