He's endorsed by #Michigan's #RashidaTlaib and that's good enough for me. Just donated to #NewYorkCity mayoral candidate #ZohranMamdani #NYC #NewYork #DSA #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica #USPol https://www.zohranfornyc.com
I have my first in person meeting with the local #democraticsocialistsofamerica branch tonight, and I’m super stoked for it! I’m looking forward to helping out and doing my best to affect positive change in my local community.
"In healthcare, the DSA endorsed the profit-driven policy of “herd immunity” as far back as 2020, originally promoted by the first Trump administration and the extreme right and which became state policy under the Biden administration. Jacobin has also favorably interviewed signatories of the pro-mass death Great Barrington Declaration in late 2020 and called for the reopening of schools, knowing they were significant vectors for the virus.
The organization has therefore been in political solidarity with policies which have produced the conditions which nurses face, including the near collapse of the healthcare system."

DSA never recovered from Bowman

Some discussion over at #DSA about whether criticism of, or opposition to, #H1B visas is "nativist". IMHO #BernieSanders makes some good points here but TBH I'm not educated enough about the issue to have a strong opinion one way or the other. Always more to learn, eh? #Immigration #Economics #Socialism #Capitalism #USPol #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica https://www.sanders.senate.gov/press-releases/news-we-need-major-reforms-in-the-h-1b-program/
I haven't read the whole thing so not sure if I agree or disagree but it seems like the sort of thing that might interest us #Fediverse folks so sharing: 'Free software does not mean “free” as in a lack of price, but in the sense of liberty—as Stallman says, “think free as in free speech, not free beer.”' #Technology #Computing #OpenSource #FreeSoftware #Capitalism #Socialism #Marxism #Economics #SocialistForum #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica #DSA https://socialistforum.dsausa.org/issues/fall-2024/on-the-commodity-fetish-of-computation/
Numbers ain't the whole story, and of course the #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica (#DSA) are just one of many left-ish organizations in the USA. But despite recent declines, membership is far, far above where it was ten years ago. Reasons to be hopeful. I hope! #USPol #Socialism

Seattle #DSA Mourns #Aysenur Ezgi Eygi
Contact: info@seattledsa.org
"We were shocked and enraged to hear of the murder of recent University of Washington graduate Aysenur Ezgi Eygi at the hands of the Israeli Defense Forces [#IDF]. On September 6th, Aysenur was in the #WestBank standing alongside #Palestinians and other demonstrators peacefully protesting illegal Israeli settlements when Israeli forces fired two rounds of gunfire. Aysenur was shot in the head and died shortly after being transported to a hospital in Nablus. She joins the tens of thousands of Palestinians martyred by the Israeli military in the last year, now escalated even further with the brutal invasion of the West Bank. According to the International Solidarity Movement, who she was volunteering with at the time, she is the 18th protester killed in the Palestinian village of #Beita since 2020 defending against the illegal settlement expansions.
"This is a terrible, horrifying loss. Those of us who knew Aysenur ('Ezgi', for many who organized with her) knew her to be a genuine, passionate, and determined person –a voice for the oppressed and the working class internationally. And for her, words alone were not enough. Ezgi was the type of socialist who embodied the true spirit of solidarity. From #StandingRock to organizing against Trump’s hateful agenda to the #GeorgeFloyd uprising, wherever people were struggling for liberation, Ezgi was there at their side. She played an instrumental role in organizing the #ProPalestine student encampment at #UW last spring, even participating in negotiations with the administration regarding their ties to #Boeing and Israel.
"As we mourn Ezgi’s loss, we remember her words from a 2017 speech during a student walkout she helped lead right after #Trump’s inauguration:
"'Mass movements of ordinary people have succeeded in blocking #RightWing bigoted presidents before….we are fighting for #socialist change. As long as our future is decided by profit-driven #OilCorporations and #millionaire lobbyists, things will only get worse. For many of us, this movement isn’t just about stopping Trump, it’s about creating a world free from #racism, from #sexism, from income inequality, and 3environmental disruption…And ultimately, we call for a political revolution against the #BillionaireClass and a socialist alternative.'
"We offer our deepest condolences to all family, friends, and community who are affected by this loss. We grieve alongside the International Solidarity Movement, and support the call for an independent investigation into this unlawful killing of a U.S. citizen.
"As the Biden/Harris administration continues to enable a #genocide, we demand an immediate and permanent ceasefire and end to US military aid to #Israel. Only when the US government stops funding it will there be an end to the genocide, occupation, and #apartheid in Palestine. We can only hope to honor Ezgi’s example of resistance and continue to fight for a world free from #genocide, #imperialism, #capitalism, and for the liberation of Palestine and all oppressed people."

Congratulations to the ignorant, #antisemitic #hateMongers at the #DemocraticSocialistsOfAmerica for intentionally creating a safety threat so significant that Jewish reggae artist #Matisyahu's concert in #Tuscon had to be canceled. The #DSA have turned themselves into a bona fide, intellectually and morally bankrupt #hateGroup with their overt #antisemitism, and celebration of #IslamicTerrorists. May all the worst things in life happen to them.
it's been a bit slow, but we're starting up a new more open (ie - open to non-members) #socialist reading group!

DC "protesters shoving police officers & trying to grab hold of metal barricades… illegally & violently protesting”
#JewishVoiceForPeace said "no one group organized the protest, but instead it was a coalition of many groups and individuals who support a #ceaseFire"
Look at the black T shirts & you will see the lie — Same kind of people pushing Rashida #Tlaib's lies about getting their voices silenced
