dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani?

great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

Zohran Mamdani's Establishment-Fighting Campaign Built Community for Young People

“What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

So are the rich people setting up foundations to feed people? Are celebrities having fund raisers? Are elected Dems setting up mutual aid? Are the past Prez’s organizing a general strike? Or is every single person who made money here just looking the other way?

in america you can either vote for the party that wants to make things worse or the party that wants to do absolutely nothing and if you try to build a coalition that makes things better they send the cops to kill you in your sleep

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

THERE IS NO HARM REDUCTION OF A GENOCIDE

sjoyner1965.bsky.social @sjoyner1965.bsky.social · 9h

Did I lie? You’re proving my point. You’re treating this as an issue of morality, rather than harm reduction. If I can reduce harm, idgaf about my morality. If both Harris and Trump lead to the death of civilians, but, with Harris, it’s less, I’m going to choose the option that causes less harm.

Not for nothing but I see so many absolute pieces of shit doing just fine—THRIVING, even!—and meanwhile any money I could make (somehow?) in the foreseeable future has already been earmarked by a bunch of creditors who treat me like I’m the worst sort of scum. Is it really like this for most people?

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

The US has seen at least half a dozen "once in a lifetime" crises since the turn of the century, and instead of forcing people into action, they've had the effect of pacifying the population, conditioning them to accept worse conditions, fewer rights, and a technofascist authoritarian police state.

The history of the last decade is that the left has expended monumental resources to get a handful of electeds into power at a time when they could have made an impact. As soon as they got into office, they turned their backs on the base and folded to the pressure coming from the establishment.

There’s not enough resources to feed the millions who lost SNAP. Are you ready for STARVATION to be used as a weapon of war on us? No one can be. It’s a rhetorical question.

A successful, anti-colonial, and socialist revolution must be a mass movement involving the people, with direct input in administering the state and a focus on educating the masses to eliminate colonial and racial mindsets.

I’m doing research for a project and found out about the “don’t buy where you can’t work” movement during the depression, where Black people boycotted and picketed places that wouldn’t hire us. Shout out to everyone who’s not going back to Target!

<p>“Don’t Buy Where You Can’t Work” campaigns of the 1930s used effective direct-action tactics, such as boycotts and picketing. </p>

The fact a *single* Amazon full-time employee requires SNAP benefits should be a crime. The fact Amazon is the largest employer of SNAP recipients is a disgrace. Jeff Bezos shouldnt be that rich; he should be in jail.
