Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.
It’s cowardice.

"Yes, Cuomo is awful, but I have some policy differences with the progressives, so this is hard."
This is not hard. What you do is, you set aside your precious little checklist, and YOU DON'T VOTE FOR THE AWFUL PERSON.

Andor nails it — Many of Nazism's earliest supporters ended up in the camps. The man who wrote 'First They Came For' was an anti-communist Minister who cheered the incarceration of socialists. The poem is a warning about the dangers of supporting authoritarianism that you think works for you.

Why did Congressional Republicans jam through an unpopular budget with the largest Medicaid cuts in history?
It could be because nearly 70% of them would financially benefit from the bill's extension of Trump's tax cuts for the rich.
Reverse Robin Hood.

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life.
Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever.
Our problem isn't a lack of resources.
Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Trump says Republicans should "probably not" increase taxes on the rich in their forthcoming tax bill.
Meanwhile, his tariffs will hit poor and working-class Americans the hardest.

Your Mother’s Day weekend reminder that the so-called “party of family values” has historically blocked:
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

Resistence is NOT futile
Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent.
Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list.
This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts.
It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

Closing rural post offices will do the same thing that closing rural schools has done: Empty out rural towns.
Why? To sell off farmland for rock bottom prices to the oligarchs. Water and mineral rights and CAFOs polluting with impunity.
