Mamdani is grounded in values and principles which he doesn’t compromise on -Schumer isn’t

sorry for misunderstanding! although this topic is so clear-cut morally, strategically and politically that their craven appeasement of far right bullshit makes me think they absolutely don’t have the fight for anything

What opposition? They believe the age should be 14 - its a disgrace

I think by later this year Abolish ICE will be a mainstream position for the majority of voters

I think we underestimate the public. A lot of us/them seem to understand the gravity of the situation better than elected officials. I think yr idea is more a message to assuage the ruling class

First mistake is assuming the “best and brightest” are found in elite universities and end up in Mckinsey. He comed across as superconfident and arrogant - much like the people he maligns

The problem I have is that these are not just policy or poltical compromises labour are asking of its base - but ethical and moral compromises which I will not make.

I thought terfs thought that trans children were just misguided kids on the spectrum? Difficult to keep up with the bigotry

And so what if it is? Socialism is good actually

he is being truthful and shit stirring at the same time though.

at least it can re-draw the line between the labour party and the tories/reform on the issue - which is vital in presenting voters with an alternative narrative to the one the far right is peddling.

I take this to mean she didn’t find Noem an absolute moron and confused that with her being intelligent and cogent.

So much love for you and I appreciate your courage and integrity to speak like this.

At this point its better if they don’t

Also, its not just ‘activists’ that are worried about racism (however the author is defining that) - its a broad spectrum of ethnic minorities too - you know, because of their physical safety - but lets coddle reform voters even more

“Crying” racism? Suggesting its a made up thing?

Does Klein not know that the cordon sanitaire is a real and successful strategy?

You know - I was so thankful when Labour got in as I saw it as an important and possibly lone guardrail in Europe against the rise of the far right (esp govts) - and it has been a bitter disappointment. We have so few leaders that are meeting this moment.

Do they know about socialism?
September 27, 2025 at 6:52 AM
Accurate. Half the internet gets their news through this meme with no context (including me) and I love it.

part of the reason we’re in the mess we’re in is because people with hierarchical power (and the protection that comes with that power - its not just risk) are not standing up to fascism. the idea that we’re all dealing with the same risk/reward ratio is intellectually dishonest.
