There’s no other way of looking at this: this was as potent of a first day move as one could make to push things clearly in the direction of solidifying socialism.

Above all else people can’t afford rent. And, the fucking glaringly brazen way that landlords are able to get away with utterly leaving apartments in disrepair yet still asking for rent checks is the epitome of capitalist decay. And he’s shining a light on both here.

That Zohran knows he has a mega platform now and chose to go to a black neighborhood in Brooklyn, with tv news cameras following his every move, is a stroke of genius.

I don’t know how all this is going to pan out. There will be and I’m sure now is underway all kinds of hellacious subterfuge and sabotage to sink his agenda.

But if he can win the hearts and minds of working people, who have been fucked over in election after election by the shitty fake democrats that win easily here, and get them to see themselves in solidarity with a socialist movement, we could really be seeing the beginnings of building a serious socialist movement to dislodge the feckless democrats.

It can not be a phot opp. I don’t think it will be.
