From Milwaukee’s sewer socialists to La Guardia’s New Deal metropolis, urban reformers changed their cities by forging alliances beyond local power.

Fifty years ago, Sweden attempted the most ambitious democratic transition to socialism ever. Its architect, a Jewish economist who witnessed the rise of Nazi Germany firsthand, was motivated by the imperative to never repeat the horrors of fascism.

@weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social Submitting a question to the pod, not sure what the best way to do that is but I'm trying this. Jon, you sang Tim Miller a beautiful song of the name 'Momdani' Are you a socialist now? But more seriously, what are your thoughts of the DSA and their future in our gov?

#SewerSocialism shout out! Keep spreading the Milwaukee story @michaelbrownstein.bsky.social @madva.bsky.social and @adamconover.net! Milorganite forever!! @mkedsa.bsky.social

Genuinely impressed with the how effectively communicative this video is. Easily one of the best 30 minutes of explaining wtf is going/has gone, so horribly wrong with things

In Ground Truth’s early canvasses, two-thirds of people stayed to talk for 10–15 minutes—even many who don’t vote for Democrats. Why? Because someone finally showed up to listen. Those conversations might not flip a vote tomorrow, but they rebuild trust that can reshape districts over time.

The most read press release in the past 24 hours: Council Steps Up to Support City Workers by Overriding Mayoral Veto

Voters don’t talk in cable news sound bites. They talk about the food bank running low, the cost of raising a kid, and the feeling that no one in power is fighting for them. When you really listen, those stories hit you: people aren’t asking for perfection. They’re asking to be taken seriously.

Jamal Khashoggi came from a prominent Saudi family but fled his country in June, 2017, after he'd become increasingly critical of his government. The Saudi journalist was murdered in 2018. n.pr/43JW7WJ

Ya know maybe we wouldn't have #RFKjr in power, and such a population of people like him, if #healthcare corporations weren't coercing us all for thousands, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of dollars when we're on the brink of death. Just a theory

Fuck You @rockstargames.com No #union, no #gta6

Would be cool to get that #JimmyKimmel type of response on this one

No problem is solved with responsibility being placed on those who are affected

THERE IS. NO GOD. #theacaciastrain

Sooo #usgeneralstrike? I might just start saying that on everything tbh

Less than 600 #immigration judges, and counting down. Over 3,500,000 cases. And often the judges dont even have a single person for security in their own courtroom.

#Hardcoremusic has come so far from an underground niche subgenre to what it is today and I love it so much; but there's no way I can say in this character limit how much it needs shit like this. Yall have no idea how fast I'd get on a plane if I heard about #Incendiary playing on wall street

Today on Capitalist Distopia, they got a McDonald's and Tbell in the Pentagon

My parents stopped driving before I was born. Public transit and car dependency was an obvious issue to me at young age. The boot of the auto industry has always felt unbeatable, while seemingly more important and more changeable issues arose. I would love to finally see this get some traction

It can not possibly be overstated, how understated this headline is

"I stand for the man who works; to hell with the kings" - Daniel Hoan @mkedsa.bsky.social @demsocialists.bsky.social

Bar codes were invented to weed out slow workers Efficiency and innovation under capitalism only exist to further exploit us, the #workingclass

Zohran won't be the first democratic socialist to govern a big US city In 1936, even Time Magazine admitted that after two decades of Socialist mayors, "Milwaukee has become perhaps the best-governed city in the U.S." Its cover on Mayor Daniel Hoan was captioned: "He gave Karl Marx all the credit"

I crunched the numbers: the three largest state organizations of the old Socialist Party were Washington, Oregon, & Wisconsin (controlled for pop size) But only in WI did the socialists consistently lead the union movement, & only in WI was socialism's base broad enough for big electoral victories
