No strong opinion either way on Chi running, (I personally lean against endorsement but it's not my chapter), but what a crazy moment in history to be able to read "NYC mayor elect to attend a DSA forum, as a member, to advocate for one policy over another"

Short explanation of what the deal is with "affordability" in the housing ballot proposals, since people have lots of questions - mainly stemming from the fact that our existing system is so complicated to begin with! (Explanation first, some personal commentary after)

There's a particular kind of doomer on here who's like "and then SCOTUS will install him as president for a third term, and the military will back him up" as if that's the end of history.
Friend, there's still an "and then" after that.

You know who the real freeloaders in this country are? Not people who rely on SNAP, but corporations whose business model depends on wages so low that taxpayers have to feed their workers.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

courageous to stand proud in his faith and directly address the islamophobia on the eve of early voting. this is what leadership and integrity looks like.
The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.
And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.
No more.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

But secondly, I actually thought it was interesting to see the range of demands and what motivated people to come out on Saturday
Like some people's signs said abolish ICE, some said leave queer kids alone, some said stop funding genocide, some said stop stealing medical research funding, etc etc

I’m less concerned about part of the White House being torn down, and more concerned about the fact that it’s being replaced with a $250m privately funded ballroom. I don’t think people who intend to leave office in 3 years typically spend a quarter of a billon on a 4 year construction project.
