You know I totally understand being frustrated by Chris Smalls but the total and insulting language people are using to dismiss him is kind of disturbing and smacks of chauvinism

Yes actually! There was a small group that briefly planned to poison the German water supply for this reason. It would have been a horrific and inexcusable crime. There’s a great song that connects this mentality to Zionism youtu.be/nTOhItq5Xow?si…

barbarism critic@barbarismcrit

A Jewish person in 1945 saying “Nazis should not feel safe anywhere in the world. I also don’t give a shit if people collapse the distinction between nazis and Germans. Not when at least 82% of Germans support this.” Is this objectionable?

I get it. Lefties are stifled and just want to feel free in all respects. But when you are so free that you can’t allow yourself to critically support a guy like Zohran, your brain is fried on Movement Orthodoxy (or as Christman said a Head Full of Internet).
Christian Smalls@Shut_downAmazon

Zohran is going to break ppls heart way more then AOC because he plays the fence so well one day he can sound like a leader of resistance the next a shill for Israel. I knew something was off the moment he said absolutely nothing while he knew I was in Prison in Israel.

One of the reasons US anti-war activity is so weak is political sectarianism

@jake_burdett @aaronnarraph It’s the caucus that won a plurality of votes in the last leadership election, over 40% of the vote.

@aaronnarraph Is this the caucus that’s being accused of acting highly undemocratic in the NYC chapter?

Just thinking of the topics and positions the “serious, be normal” socialists were staking out by the 2nd half of the Biden admin. Anti-antisocial vigilante squads, yimbyism-but-with-unions, sad but necessary border security, patriotic support for the war in Ukraine,
I’m a freakin Marxist, Buster!!@totalnewbie1

@GoodVibePolitik Early 2023. Mindy along with a handful of various leftists/yimbies got deep in to this topic and needing to make “antisocial behavior” unacceptable on public transit. Then Daniel Penny killed a person and everyone had to shut up. Surprised it took this long for it to come back.

@petersterne Peter, I believe what you are missing is that AOC *did not* say that we should to go war with China in the first place, and in fact took a less hawkish position than Biden on Taiwan. So criticism is not of Ross’s position but that it is a needless attack on an ally

You can certainly disagree with Ross' argument – plenty of liberals who believe AOC should maintain a hawkish China policy do! – but this is fundamentally a critique of AOC's foreign policy *from the left* so I don't understand why anti-imperialists hate this article so much.

I'm increasingly convinced that none of the leftists criticizing Ross Barkan's article on AOC actually read it. Most of the left criticism of this article is nonsensical. I don't mean it's wrong; I mean it literally makes no sense. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

@tmavuram I'm afraid AOC will be like Obama and get everyone's hopes up. She has said some things which suggests she would be. Your original post was expressing anger at people who would call her a sell out when she sells out.

Looking forward to AOC running for president for many reasons but chief among them is I will finally get off this stupid website. You think I want to see two years’ worth of stupid tweets about whether she’s a sellout or a liberal or a bitch or reminds you of your ex-wife? No!

This is misleading and irresponsible. Unlike what Kate implies here, both Shahana and Chi were endorsed by Open NY in 2025. Both are committed socialists and will strengthen our movement. Vote yes to Shahana and Chi!
Kate Willett@katewillett

I voted YES on Chi and no on Shahana joining SIO’s. I like her, I respect her, I voted for her to be my CM, but I want DSA 10k miles away from Open New York, a real estate lobby org she is close to. I want DSA aligned w/ NYC’s tenant movement not developers. My one concern.
