I try to accentuate the positive. That's been hard lately

This is a reach, but bear with me:

These folks aren't necessarily #left leaning

But now they are on the outside, with us

Not just ex-#Pentagon, but from all over the #US #government

They have a grudge against the #bigot-#moron-#plutocrat #coup

Smart people who know things

Some of them may even be on #Mastodon

I say to them: "welcome" 👋

Lets do something about it

#BernieSanders is not your friend, he has deceived the mass of the American #left when it was most energetic & willing, funneled them into the dead end that is the #DemocraticParty.

If he had a slightest care to y'all he would have campaigned #independent of the Dem since long ago. He did not. He is not.

Yeah, it’s official.

Fuck off #BernieSanders & #AOC.
You’re not rallying for us, you’re doing outreach for your #nazi party.

If you’ve abandoned #Palestine, you’re not on the #left. You’re an op, even if you don’t know it yet.

But #Sanders knows better. He just never cared about Palestine. Fuck em.

If #BernieSanders had led a 10-15M voter chunk out of the 50M member #DemocraticParty, they'd clearly & obviously never be able to get elected again without us in a way that would matter & couldn't be hidden from view. That would bring the #left into the light and put our agenda on the table.

If your " #left leaders" are still promoting the 1%-owned, genocidal #imperialist #DemocraticParty as part of a solution to the problems facing the #US #workingclass & the exploited & oppressed of the #globalsouth, they're not leaders; they're misleaders.

It's a hard truth to face, but it's true.

The people who are following #BernieSanders, wanting him to do something real are some of the most #progressive people in the country, but they're completely wasting their time with him as a "leader."

The #US #left continues to be stuck with no major #labor movement & no major political leaders.

Nice local elections result in #Finland indeed!

And my candidate got through, for the first time! Yeehaa. Congrats, Paco Diop!

Relating: when checking the results, I noticed that my party Vasemmistoliitto (”The #Left Union") has the highest amount of immigrants in the new city council group. Both percentage-wise and in absolute numbers: three. This either a) is great news or b) tells something about latent #racism in #Finland.

I ’ll pick a) for now.

"Recall that some of Trump’s apologists on both the #right and #left previously insisted on a fantastical vision of #Trump as an anti-imperial dove whose instinctive isolationism would reduce American aggression abroad." liberalcurrents.com/yes-its-fa

Yes, It's Fascism

It’s not an omen or threat or hint of fascism—it’s…

A common problem of the contemporary #liberal #left is not claiming the values of discipline, commitment and militancy back from the right.

Allowing the right to claim ownership of those values while doubling down on values like safety leads to giving up the tools to achieve it in the first place.

Those safe spaces won’t police themselves. They need tough & muscular nonbinaries and allies standing by, ready to punch any nazis coming in to disrupt them.

The narrative needs to #change.
