With Zohran Mamdani's victory, US socialists are about to take power on a scale unseen in living memory. Now, they have to use that power well—or be crushed by the ruling class.

Zohran Mamdani's triumph has given socialists huge power in New York City. Now they must use it well--or see the ruling class crush them.

I write about how NYC-DSA and the Left can use a Mamdani mayoralty to organize a mass base around enacting policy gains and long-term campaigns for the structural changes that would tip the playing field for working-class New Yorkers.

What is DSA's NPC, and why should we care? Put it this way: whether the mass-politics orientation of Zohran's campaign is reproduced by DSA at the national level will be decided by whichever tendency controls the NPC. The two main tendencies are explained masterfully by

1/🧵 Following up on our study featured in NYT today, this figure provides a macro-level view: Dem vote shares rise with turnout parity (left) but fall with party-level ideological moderation (right). This suggests mobilizing base voters > persuading swing voters by moving to the center.

Last year, Mayor Adams vetoed legislation to expand rental assistance. Now we learn that homelessness is higher in NYC than in any other U.S. city, up 25% last year. This horrifying reality is the result of sky-high housing costs and the lack of leadership from City Hall.

The horrific death of Robert Brooks at Marcy Correctional Facility is heartbreaking, enraging, and utterly unacceptable. No one—no matter their circumstances—deserves to suffer the kind of abuse and violence that led to this tragic outcome. 1/7

#NYC
is one of the most unequal cities in the country, but it doesn’t have to be that way. As democratic socialists, we’re building working class power to challenge the dominance of the wealthy and the powerful in the 5 boroughs. If you want to build a better New York, join us!
