As long as both comfy liberal centrists and conservatives continue to malign the activist grassroots left, the REAL threat of fascism will continue to grow.

ALL of our union leadership needs to WAKE-UP and rekindle its relationship with its activist roots, NOT shun and ignore us!
Oh FFS, heads up if you're around the Kits Beach area today 🙄🤦🏻‍♂️

When "I won't vote for somebody who doesn't support trans people" is considered a hostage taking purity test

but "I won't vote for somebody who DOES support trans people" is NOT considered a hostage-taking purity test

then we aren't against hostage taking, we're just choosing our preferred hostage

NEW: Over 630 people have signed up to speak to Council on Ken Sim's last budget.

ABC councillors now have a choice to make.

Vote for austerity and brutal cuts that nobody asked for - or do the right thing and preserve funding for climate, housing, and arts.

All jokes aside, people from across the country are invested in Zohran Mamdani winning because the people need hope.

Folks are feeling run down. Things are bleak. We need proof that our neighbors still know how to make the right choice and that change is possible.

It's not a coincidence that Kat Abughazaleh is Palestinian. Trump is having a Palestinian American running for Congress indicted for standing against ICE.

Everything is connected.

centrists will tell you to your face that we all need to abandon identity issues, and focus on kitchen table issues instead and yet when a leftist candidate runs a generational campaign based on kitchen table issues, it's the centrists weaponizing identity politics to smear the leftist.

Offered here is some "chicken soup" for lefties who are sick and tired of corporate centrist liberals, conservatives, and fascists who accuse the left of being the only group guilty of purity testing, being in an online echo chamber, or being "too woke", over and over again ad-nauseum.

Protesting about Palestine at a rally against fascism is actually incredibly on topic and if you don't think so, it's only because you only care about fascism when it affects you.

There's room at the top
they're telling ya still,
but first you must learn
how to smile as you kill,
if you wanna be like
all the *zionists* on the hill.

A working class hero is something to be.

It’s always interesting when politicians say hate and violence have no place in this country. It was founded on those principles.

International journalists can’t enter Gaza. But healthcare workers can.

That makes their testimony vital. They can cut through to the reality of the atrocities Israel is committing in Gaza.

In today’s video, you’ll hear their firsthand accounts of witnessing a genocide:
