  • Who the fuck knows what’s going to happen anymore, but I don’t really think they’re going to be able to not deliver mail-in ballots. The Postal Workers Union has already said they do not care what the Postmaster General or anyone else says, they will be delivering ballots. States run their elections, if the states also tell Washington to kick rocks, there’s not much they can do besides firing all the postal workers and good fucking luck canning an incredibly powerful union with multiple additional legal protections that other unions don’t have


  • DAC is definitely pretty leftist, agreed with the other two (DAC>Valdez>Lander). I still like Lander and aren’t gonna freak out over him unless he just shits the bed (he was a DSA member since 87 so he’s definitely not fake), but his comment (yesterday? today?) saying he’s looking forward to voting for Hakeem as the House Majority leader spooked me.

    Get where he’s coming from to not just say, “fuck everyone else in the party, our way or the highway” cause you can’t just do that when you’ve only got 20 or so squad-type House members right now, but please don’t capitulate to the establishment


  • The only districts a DSA candidate couldn’t win in are districts like whatever the Hamptons and Nantucket are in, and who gives a fuck about them.

    This was a primary to be fair, and I don’t think a DSA candidate would suddenly be able to win in most rural districts in the South, but I’d bet if the DSA started running a challenger in each and every district in 2030, we’d win more than half of the primaries if not more.

    I appreciate they’re taking it relatively slowly with the races they’re going for, showing their candidates walk the talk and their shit works instead of just going all out right away and potentially dying








  • It’s completely insane. I know that prison terms are decided by the judges (within the windows of their charges), but I cannot for the life of me believe that 8 or however many ‘impartial’ jurors decided that terrorism charges for 50, 70, and 100 years were OK. There’s just no fucking way.

    A murder charge gets you at max 99 years in Texas. The guy who shot the officer didn’t even kill him. There’s evidence that was withheld from the court that the officer drew first.

    I cannot believe so many people in this country and around the world are OK with outright tyranny. I might as well be a separate species than them
