The Democratic Party needs to go the way of the Whigs. They have no identity , no purpose, no convictions. They’ve become useless and dangerous.
Bill Clinton finally drove them right into the ditch.
They are opportunistic lobbyist facilitators. Everything gets run by them first. Repeat over decades.
This is the best take I’ve read in a while. The Democratic Party is an obstacle to progress, they are not the “opposition”. We cannot rely on cowards who preach bipartisanship and unity when fascism is here.
The working class demands radical, fundamental change. (Credit to @popsknox.bsky.social)

It’s heartbreaking to watch California burn. Terrifying to watch and there’s a visceral sadness I struggle to express.
We live in an era when “Move on” are the cruelest words. Move on from North Carolina floods, move on from California fires — don’t do it. Don’t move on, don’t abandon people.

Okay if I'm gonna be on Bluesky--and I heard there's alot of BlueMAGA on here--
Fuck Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
If you are even remotely thinking about considering leftists as pro-MAGA, you are a liberal. Block me.
You are horribly lazy fucking people that hate to govern. Block me.

No lies detected.
If you're supporting ANY politician who doesn't support single payer healthcare ( #MedicareForAll) then you need to find a different politician to support.
Only when as a whole we begin doing this we're going to keep running around in circles fighting for what's right. It's time

Pro-Palestine zine cannot be distributed on campus, MIT says
The controversy arose over an essay critiquing pacifism, which administrators said made some students concerned for their “safety and well-being.”
a Pro-Palestine essay rejecting pacifism was banned at MIT for "threatening" the "safety and well-being" of students but in the same article they detail the Israeli military funding student research and Im compelled to ask: do they think the IDF is the 4H club?

Matt Yglesias Is Confidently Wrong About Everything
The Biden administration’s favorite centrist pundit produces smug pseudo-analysis that cannot be considered serious thought. He ought to be permanently disregarded.
“Yglesias’s reaction to seeing a poem about the Gaza genocide is that it shows the ‘increasingly porous boundaries between mental illness and leftwing politics.’ Setting aside the question of whether Yglesias is persuaded by the ICJ case against Israel, this is the attitude of an asshole.”

Biden supports genocide in Gaza because he agrees with it
Fake behind-the-scenes maneuvering, supposed electoral necessity: all cover to avoid the unseemly fact that Biden simply supports genocide in Gaza because he thinks it’s justified.
with Biden’s lockstep support for genocide in Gaza, there emerged a cottage industry of excuse-making, ranging from Feigned Helplessness to 18 dimensional chess to the Israel lobby forcing him.
As he exits office, I propose a simpler explanation: he just agrees w/ it

so now the democratic discourse is "how many moral and ethical positions can we abandon to be republican enough? how many minorities can we abandon to the vicissitudes of fascism? how quickly can we do it?"
it's a party of nothing for nobody. no principles and no backbone.
just "fundraising"

Cutting federal programs means more violence inflicted on women and kids. The stress of austerity will trickle down into the households of innocent people who will bear the brunt of these consequences.
