Guys, its not a bloodbath for the military. It's not a bloodbath for mining. It's not a bloodbath for oil pipelines. The Q is not whether it's a victory CCA didn't take a 15% hit - the Q is why is culture absent in a budget that is made to resist a foreign power threatening our sovereignty.

Obv, as someone who is involved in the artsI have a vested interest. But separately, I think this is a serious strategic error in how to resist a massive, powerful nation that is threatening your sovereignty. Cultural cohesion is key. They can come and take the mines and oil if they want to.

It's a pretty big play for democratic socialism broadly speaking. If in 2029, New Yorkers are talking about how this government tangibly improved their lives... Also, there are a lot of folx that are worried about the precedent it sets and will make realizing promises difficult. Buckle Up.
