I've been a member of @twincitiesdsa.org, @nctriangledsa.bsky.social and wish I'd joined @chicagodsa.bsky.social while I was there in grad school, becoming radicalized by all of this *gestures broadly*

The self-hating dynamic does rock. Thinking fondly back to the days of Class Unity trying (and failing miserably) to take over my local DSA chapter because membership was too woke and white collar and finding out that the head honcho was a U Chicago adjunct
We need more writing on this. The class character of a the PMC is undertheorized. At least undertheorized for what it is: a historically progressive force. There’s been a fair amount of dismissive sneering from self conscious intellectuals.
Zohran’s win was, in part, an outcome of the growing PMC class consciousness, and I’m happy someone at the Times is noticing

Chuy did do a machine move, but it's odd for a congressperson from a west coast state to single him out in a priveleged resolution, making me think there's some hidden connection or shenanigans.

Just before this move, she was under intense criticism for being 1 of 6 house Dems who voted to cave

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Bread & Roses members keep on producing the most thoughtful, sober, and strategic analyses of the current moment in DSA. I am glad we have embraced the identity of the “DSA Center” as it reflects the best blend of mass politics and Marxist discipline for DSA.

Speculation is that ICE could be trying to move people out to clean the holding cells and to set up cots to comply with the latest judicial order to address inhumane conditions inside the facility. The judge is currently scheduled to inspect the facility Thursday morning.

I hope in the months and years after we can uncover what has gone in at Broadview. And we can continue to collect the stories of those that have been there.

DSA stands in absolute opposition to the proposed deal to pass Trump's billionaire budget. Healthcare is a right, not a bargaining chip.

All my life I was told I was Jewish, I was stopped by Hasids on the streets asking me to wrap Tefillin, I was invited to Jewish holidays from strangers, etc.

The ONLY time I’ve been told I’m NOT a real Jew is when I criticize Israel.

Go fuck yourself Alex

Zohran’s win means we can be bolder in our electoral runs. We don’t have to hide our socialist light under a bushel. We can lift our constituents’ aspirations higher.

The democrats will not save us, they never were going to. Get involved in a people's movement.

If DSA can get a socialist elected mayor in NYC and a socialist on city council in ATL then let's just see how far we can take it. Props to @kelseabondatl.bsky.social
