A robust, labor-focused left in 2026 wouldn't be a bulked up white man with a hammer and sickle, it would be a pharmacy technician in Kansas, or a nurse in New York City. Both of whom have been at the center of nasty union fights in recent times.

Graham Platner trying to explain away his behavior as *living a regular life* really evokes *locker room talk* for me. The normalization of men’s abuse of women has to stop. Abusing women is not regular or normal or in any way okay. I hope this gets called out by lots and lots of people.

This is the most recent in a series of escalating incidents. On at least three additional occasions in the last two weeks, National Guard soldiers have handcuffed and detained people in DC, in some cases with absolutely no cause:

The footage shows three male National Guard soldiers approach a woman as she sits alone on a bench outside her home near Truxton Circle. As she attempts to walk back inside, the soldiers surround her and block her from leaving. They then throw her to the ground and handcuff her as she screams.

This should be recognized for what it is, which is another high pressure affinity group based sales pitch, it has nothing to do with "the left" whatsoever. It's slimy and not a little coercive. People making it are dupes and if not dupes then they are definitely not your friend

The one that really grinds my gears lately is "the left CANNOT afford to be left behind on this." Left behind on what. At least come up with a fake problem to pretend to be solving. What is "the left" losing out on here. Reading its own email?

There's no "right time" to raise salient issues in politics. You just have raise them and fight to win. There is no conductor to decide which order to bring up issues.

Good example of a headline that is literally just untrue and amounts to malpractice— there is no "seeing" settlements in occupied East Jerusalem and the West Bank as illegal, they are factually illegal. UNSCR 2334 and the Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice from July 2024 say so.

Federal immigration agents are still swamping Chicagoland. Sightings in multiple city neighborhoods and in the suburbs today, with reports of at least three people being taken. "ICE is everywhere," the immigrant advocacy/rapid response group Hijos de Migrantes posted in an alert earlier today.

I think it's bad that the House Democratic Leader can't just unequivocally condemn a racist smear from a racist newspaper against an army combat medic veteran who just won a primary to join his caucus next year.

China 'doing something' with my data would involve a land invasion in California, years of attrition warfare across the western 2/3rds of North America, and pretending nukes don't exist. America 'doing something' with my data involves bell peppers costing $10/lbs. and being arrested for posting.

I think people think of skepticism as cynicism because they think cynics want to be right about their skepticism. Just speaking for my cynical ass, but I want nothing more than to be wrong. I want the Dems to be the fighters their loyalists think they are because my options are extremely limited.

people say they want police so they can keep the peace but really what they want is for the police to keep order, and those are very different things. keeping order is an inherently violent act even if its just cops meandering in circles.
