mamdani is human. he'll fuck up and fail, especially with a hostile press and the giant mess that is nyc's politics. but today is a great day for the brave women who told what cuomo did, and for those of us who care that it should matter. that power shouldn't go to those who hurt the poweless.
I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

The Irish front runner for pres is wrong for peace in Europe. Ru can't be stopped diplomatically. Trump nearly ended mil aid; 9mo of talks got nothing. Ru refuses a ceasefire. Calling Ru's war illegal is useless w/o helping Ukr. If Connolly gets her way, Europe wld be helping Ru win through inaction

Every time Dems cooperate with this regime they lose more respect and credibility. I want to see the Dems repeating Mitch McConnell’s stonewalling of President Obama, where they refuse to work with their political opponents on ANYTHING unless it directly benefits the middle class (and lower) people.

I feel like the left in the US polarized itself into willful ignorance on military policy and entirely ceded the foreign policy of it to the right because the military was viewed as de facto a right-wing tool and all use of military force as imperialistic

This is why Defence is and should be a left-wing priority
Whilst European reluctance to go against Israel isn't purely down to American influence, do think the limited options open to European governments in influencing events virtually on Europe's doorstep is another way in which outsourcing defence to America has bound us

Obama and Biden deported more people because they were specifically targeting criminals; Trump's "all of the above" approach has sent a lot of people into hiding, making them harder to find and deport.
No, it's actually Donald Trump and Republicans doing these mass deportations, not Democrats.

The firmest basis for peace between adversaries is mutual fear. The Russians might not have started a war if they feared the west might take advantage of their weakness.
To turn the infamous Obama-era Russian framing back around on them, *the* fundamental problem in European security architectures is that the Russians have too much confidence and security.
Deterrence is about producing in your enemy's mind a fear to act aggressively. To hell with restraint.

Rather than asking, "How do we fight and win a war on an industrial scale?" the question has seemingly become, "How do we make our small force smaller and more deadly?” That might work…for a few weeks…

The only conspiracy I believe in is the one I have had in my head for the past few weeks, in which the Powers That Be are consciously moving away from combined arms warfare and believe that SOF guys and (as yet non-existent) drone swarms are the way of the future

I think there’s far more evidence for the exact opposite being true: the veneer of academic radicalism is meant to distract from relatively straightforward things like “we don’t have enough apartments”. Just so tired of this bullshit dude.
By the way, this is a main function of the "Abundance Agenda." It's about intervening in *this moment* to prevent well-meaning people from adopting more structural analyses of the problems and to prevent the anti-fascist coalition from getting too egalitarian/anti-capitalist.
One of the themes of propaganda that pervades almost all news reporting on "crime" and "public safety" is an obsession with the idea that the problems of our world can be solved without discussing root causes like concentrated power and inequality. From my new book, Copaganda:
