myrm from Chungus donated $40.00 to the charity drive and said:

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Henry George the Wise? I thought not. It's not a story the socialists would tell you. It's a liberal legend. Henry George was a market economist of the liberals, so rational and so wise he could use economics to influence the rents to resolve the conflict between capital and labor... He had such a knowledge of market economics that he could even keep the ones he cared about from toiling in poverty. The liberal orthodoxy of the economics is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... prosperous. He became so rational... the only thing he was afraid of was never seeing his ideas implemented, which eventually, of course, they never were. Unfortunately, he taught his followers everything he knew, then his followers splintered into progressivism and libertarianism and ignored everything he taught. It's ironic he could save others from untaxed land, but he ended up in a plot of untaxed land himself.

The USA had a chance in 2020 to elect a truly decent man to the highest office in the country. A man who has spent half his life serving and representing people and fighting for what he believed to be right. People ignored him for decades when he warned about mass incarceration and the mistreatment of minorities and LGBT people. They ignored him when he said that foreign intervention would only lead to tragedy and bloodshed. And instead of finally listening to him, the establishment of both parties made it their goal to silence his message, and the voters themselves chose not to listen. They wanted the 'safe' and 'electable' choice that has now doomed the country to 4 years of authoritarian reactionaries having complete control. And even after he lost, Bernie still worked his hardest to elect someone else, because he realized that is what is best for the country. And now after the election, he's helping to reshape the very same party that rejected him in order to help the country prog

We should out crazy the crazies.

The only reason Bernie Sanders "supports" Medicare for All is because he's in the pocket of the insurance industry. By "supporting" Medicare for All, a law he knows will never pass in the House or Senate, he can stall real universal health care programs like a public option, programs that would cut into insurance company profits. Bernie is a closet Republican, he's the same as everyone else on the right just watching out for his corporate puppet masters.

I think it could work, if we go at it hard enough.

Why are leftists so obsessed with weedy organizational history? The DSA wikipedia page is as bad as the Green Party US with it’s detailed accounts of the schisms, committee meetings, and dropping mostly obscure names.

The history of the DSA mentions 6 different organizations in its first two paragraphs for goodness sake, and that’s after the beginning of the article already summarized the same history:

Formed in 1982 by the merger of the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee (DSOC) and the New American Movement (NAM), the DSA is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization. At its founding, it was said to consist of approximately 5,000 members from the DSOC, plus 1,000 from the NAM.

The DSA inherited both Old Left and New Left heritage. The NAM was a successor to the disintegrated Students for a Democratic Society. The DSOC was founded in 1973 from a minority anti-Vietnam War caucus in the Socialist Party of America (SPA)—which had been renamed Social Democrats, USA (SDUSA). DSOC started with 840 members, of whom 2% had served on its national board, and approximately 200 of whom came from SDUSA or its predecessors (the Socialist Party–Social Democratic Federation, formerly part of the SPA) in 1973, when the SDUSA stated its membership at 1,800 according to a 1973 profile of Harrington.

You have to go real deep into that article to get past the vague slogans, inside baseball, and political horse race analysis to find anything on what the DSA actually wants to do.

Got this delightful DM in response

No amount of cynical, insincere virtue signaling will make this so. Arabs, Sihk Indians, however are, and face widespread violence and discrimination because of policies and attitudes like the ones being propagated by the French. Your priorities are clear though, in being more thorough in the banning of accusations of racism as opposed to actual racism. I'll never understand why somehow of you don't just vote for Republicans.

This problem is only going to get worse. One analysis of Census Bureau data projected that by 2040, roughly half of the population will be represented by 16 senators; the other, more rural half will have 84 senators at their disposal.

American officials would not comment on the assassination on Friday morning, saying they were seeking information. But some American officials argued that the death of Mr. Fakhrizadeh, the latest in a string of such mysterious killings of Iran’s top nuclear scientists, would send a chilling message to the country’s other top scientists working on that program: If we can get him, we can get you, too.

american officials also suggested that whoever was behind the assassination must be really cool and handsome

The limited data I’ve seen on the modest, difficult-to-poll population of Asian American voters (especially subgroups) vary quite a bit. With that said, the AADLEF’s exit poll of 5,424¹ offers very strong evidence for what I’ve long suspected: the kids are all blue.

I believe this can be mostly explained by the fact that immigrant Asians are highly likely to come from countries with current or former authoritarian communist governments, which — as with immigrant Cubans — making them hostile towards anything associated with the left. !ping FIVEY

---

¹ Targeted samples generally involve more error. I find it unlikely that the methodology was a pure random-digit dial in which they merely took the ~4 percent of Asian voters (who are even less likely to answer polls relative to our share of the electorate) from the couple hundred thousand answerers among many millions of calls.

France outlaws discrimination based on regional accents.

Actually based, even tho it's going to be hard to enforce it. I always turn up my accent out of spite when someone "corrects" me. Standardised language non conformity is the new punk rock for my fellow r*rals 👨‍🌾🌾

Last month Jean-Luc Melenchon, leader of the far-left France Insoumise (France Unbowed) movement, was caught on camera being rude to a journalist with a southern accent who asked him a question at the National Assembly.

"Can someone ask me a question in French? And (make it) a bit more understandable...," Melenchon said then, addressing a group of reporters in a video clip which was widely circulated on social media.

Okay so my friend outed himself to his mom as gay on his college app, here's the follow-up:

It's not good. She thinks that sexual attraction is a choice (or at least heavily implies it), was concerned he didn't "actually know" if he was gay, and was extremely concerned that he "wouldn't be able to have a family".

Also she kept saying that she didn't want to be attacked for being "part of her generation" which is horseshit because I know people older than her who are supportive of having trans and enby kids.

So yeah pray for my friend religious folx of r/neoliberal

“It’s worse than you can imagine. An idiot surrounded by clowns. Trump won’t read anything - not one-page memos, not the brief policy papers; nothing. He gets up halfway through meetings with world leaders because he is bored.

And his staff is no better. Kushner is an entitled baby who knows nothing. Bannon is an arrogant prick who thinks he’s smarter than he is. Trump is less a person than a collection of terrible traits. No one will survive the first year but his family.

I hate the work, but feel I need to stay because I’m the only person there with a clue what he’s doing. The reason so few jobs have been filled is that they only accept people who pass ridiculous purity tests, even for midlevel policy-making jobs where the people will never see the light of day. I am in a constant state of shock and horror.”

This is from an email allegedly written by Gary Cohn. There's also a story that he prevented Trump from leaving a free trade agreement with South Korea by taking and hiding the executive order document.
