@paulvmarks @_HelenDale One group knows exactly who Carl Marx was but won't admit it publicly, the other group has no clue who he was as it was so long ago and probably was a boomer, so who cares. SMDH

@rmschloss @RateCulture @thehill If Biden and other Democrats disagree, they can make an argument as to why. They have no business “shutting down” activists.
English

@RateCulture @thehill I want the Democrats to win big in November. Abolishing the police is not in the interest of the democrats. I realize what people mean when they say “defund” and dismantle but the majority of America doesn’t

the stuff white people like guy spoke at my college in like 09, and he had a quip about how white people were going from being really into music into being really into food
i think about that a lot, bc it’s lame af

every day I am shocked at how much everyone know about cooking media. like twice a week there’s a thing where you all say “sigh. Terri Mauvise isn’t doing herself or La Table Du Chef any favors.” what the fuck?? when did you all get into this stuff?

@BenjaminPDixon only 74, cuz i'm white and the cops let me go

@hardkid24 @jeneps I'm an abolitionist, but I think the slogan should be "disband the police".
Defund makes it sound like we want police driving around in broken cars etc. Disband means tearing down a broken institution, rebuilding only what's necessary, and reinvesting in other forms of care.
English

@jeneps Who came up with the slogan "Defund the Police" ?
English

Biden spokesman says Biden does not believe police should be defunded. And notes has proposed $300 million for community policing.
Jennifer Epstein@jeneps
"Biden does not believe that police should be defunded. He hears and shares the deep grief and frustration of those calling out for change, and is driven to ensure that justice is done and that we put a stop to this terrible pain. Biden supports the urgent need for reform..."
English

@DouglasMGriffin @Orwellian25 @RadioFreeTom The people calling for it are activists, who are under no obligation to moderate their message to meet public opinion. Their job is to change public opinion.
I would agree that "disband the police" would probably be a more effective slogan than "defund the police".

@ImNotOwned Where does this "Biden is struggling" narrative come from? Is it Jimmy Dore? lol
English

@Manleyan_Lulist Looking back, it seems like Webb had a lot more establishment support than I remember. It was more of a national vs local difference, but Webb still owes a lot of his support to the netroots.
English

@Manleyan_Lulist Webb became a Senator because of the left. He was very much not the establishment choice, but the left supported him because he was anti-war and pro criminal justice reform / good on civil liberties. Same for Jon Tester.
It's funny how things change over a decade.
English

@Manleyan_Lulist Yeah his primary opponent was Harris Miller, a Warnerite new democrat. Webb was supported by DailyKos / the netroots.
In a similar way, the netroots supported Jack Murtha over Steny Hoyer to be majority leader. Even though Murtha was more conservative, he was more anti-war.
English

@NeeNeinNyetNo just last year 9 cops pointed guns at moodymann and arrested him at his own house

@IAmKrishanPatel Otoh Sanders & Kamala supporters are in the streets right now building together and I hope and think we will see more of that in the future.
English

@IAmKrishanPatel As a Sanders supporter, it always irritated me than the KHive never achieved the same status as the Bernie bro narrative. Some of the most toxic cultish stan culture imaginable.

@Savagemind125 @pedroborbon3 @PeterBeinart I don’t have time to argue all night, but thank you for engaging respectfully. Shabbat shalom.
English

@Savagemind125 @pedroborbon3 @PeterBeinart It’s not just a degree of displacement. the majority of Palestinians are in the diaspora, or brutally governed by a state that isn’t theirs and sees them as a demographic threat to be contained. It’s a choice to deny them full equal status to citizens inside ‘48.
English

@Savagemind125 @pedroborbon3 @PeterBeinart I believe that Jews are indigenous to the Levant and have the right to live there. I believe that Jews and Arabs can and should be neighbors, friends, and comrades, I believe the framework that can best achieve that is one of cosmopolitan socialism, not oppressive nationalism.
English

@Savagemind125 @pedroborbon3 @PeterBeinart An ethno-nationalist project that has led to the displacement and subjugation of Palestinians who happen to be the wrong religion or ethnicity, including people in my family. A project that has often found common cause with the global far-right who pine for ethnic nationalism.
