@mushroomdebt Trust me, I swore after 10/07 I’d NEVER vote for a democrat, and I’ve held true to that promise. But I’m seeing so many people just blindly vote for DSA candidates (which sorry to say, I associate with the democratic party)

Don’t you think that, especially at the local level, if you tell a politician you won’t vote for them unless they commit to doing XYZ, they’ll be pressured to do it? Genuinely, I don’t see the incentive in voting for the “lesser evil” and then asking them to change afterward

voting for holocaust harris has consequences

I’m frustrated that most leftist influencers won’t even talk to me like a human being. They just treat me as a discursive object they can disingenuously accuse of genocide for views and clicks. So, I appreciate the opportunity to actually discuss.
English
My 1st interaction with @briebriejoy was when she replied to my tweet about Mamdani (maybe of me heckling him) and asked me to elaborate on my views. I made a thread of the moments that disappointed me about his stance on Palestine. Now she’s one of my favorites to listen to!

‼️In Defense of Litmus Tests (w/ @ContraPoints)‼️ "I joke about how I would vote for Satan to stop Donald Trump. There probably is a line, I have not found it yet, of what moral depths to which I would stoop to stop Donald Trump. It's pretty low." We debate the alleged pragmatism of liberalism, political violence, & manosphere discourse on the latest Bad Faith. Watch wherever you get your podcasts.

@shinywolf42 We cannot leave the largest socialist organization in the US to chauvinists

Mfs really want us to recruit Black people into DSA so they can be abused and called subhumans by white people. This org needs a cultural revolution. Sick of this shit. And supposed comrades see this shit going down and just watch. Sick of y’all too.

@joewrote @notsyllytyler Lol, keep writing your own narrative. Your inability to condemn AOC for funding genocide is all I need to know
English
You went from "But his criticisms of AOC come from doing the actual work on the ground and seeing who truly stands with labor and who folds for power" to "I didn't know Chris scuttled his own union effort" in two tweets.
Here's a good place to start learning about who "truly stands with labor."

Christian smalls truly represents the worst of us and has from day one. The fact he’s crashing out on AOC and people are siding with him speaks to a broad immaturity of our “left-labor movement” and I hope that people reflect on why they are falling for his very obvious grift.
English
@joewrote @notsyllytyler Not deflecting, I don’t know anything about the union lawsuit or whatever situation you’re talking about. I saw Chris already responded to you about those allegations.
I am curious to know if you support AOC’s decision to fund the iron dome
English
That was the biggest deflection I’ve ever seen.
Chris Smalls detailed ALU’s chance at a contract. The union sued to remove him. He has been part of 1 labor drive and it wasn’t even completed.
You’re fine to compare them on I/P. But there’s absolutely no question which is better for labor. And you know that, which is why you changed the topic.
English
@joewrote @notsyllytyler Question: do you agree with AOC’s decision to vote yes to funding the Israeli iron dome?
English
@anoosify @notsyllytyler Chris Smalls was sued out of the only union he joined. AOC has near-perfect ratings from every labor organization. As a labor organizer, I can tell you which one is more committed to workers' rights.
English
There is nothing more frightening to @DemSocialists members than when a black labor organizer realizes that politicians like AOC fight AGAINST workers power. Solidarity with Chris Smalls.

There is nothing more frightening to capitalists than when workers realize their power. Solidarity with Chris Smalls. twitter.com/nychange/statu…

@enoughformethx But I think a serious conversation internally needs to happen. Can ya’ll create new strategies that haven’t been tried before? Possibly blocking weapons from passing? Can you do a cost assessment? Hope these things are being discussed. Stay safe brother (2/2)
English
@enoughformethx Gonna be honest Alex: I’ll of course keep advocating for Thiago and Saif’s release, but I don’t think continuing the flotillas in its current format is strategic anymore. I absolutely supported them when the strategy changed: one boat vs hundreds of boats… (1/2)🧵

Some people have asked me why I’m going to continue sailing after being intercepted by the Israelis twice, and well, as they say, the third time is the charm

Chris Smalls was in IDF prison for 5 days after participating in the flotilla and AOC said nothing.

@joewrote @JessicaLBurbank @AOC Fuck AOC how bout that
English
ATTENTION ALL LIBERALS 🚨
Instead of putting Chris Smalls, a black man on trial for speaking the truth, put your white supremacist asses and your elected officials on trial for funding and committing the Palestinian genocide.
English
@mushroomdebt @notsyllytyler Absolutely agree. AOC is a Zionist that knowingly funded a genocide.
English
@anoosify @notsyllytyler the disparity is unacceptable, also. aoc sent weapons to continue the genocide which requires a word so much stronger than "not perfect" but for some reason it's chris smalls' record up for debate
English
Soooo the Palestinian-led NYC orgs actually doing the grassroots work: @WOLPalestine, @PAL_Awda and @decolonize_this have all criticized or condemned @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani… but apparently we’re supposed to ignore them and trust random ass people insisting he ‘means well.’ 😂
