He really has been doing some great work. All the fucking worst people in politics and political commentary are on the attack against Hasan and the DSA, but it is only going to make them more popular. It's basically Trump 2015/16, but now it's coming our direction.

Much more is needed, but it is a good and necessary paradigm shift. No matter what sect or tendency you are organizing with, we need to be thinking about how to interface with it. There is a risk that it gets co-opted by the loberal establishment, but even so, us socialists need to be meeting the moment over the next several years and juicing it for as much as we can get.

The empire is unraveling right in front of us, and we know the choice is socialism or barbarism.

    Well youalso know he's Netanyahu's enemy, I wouldn't exactly enjoy being called out by name by Trump and Netanyahu in the same week, especially if I dont hold any political power. Would be proud nonetheless tho.

    Yup. Not to belittle anyone their excitement for the future, but If somebody's not exhausted by the thought of what socialist action needs to be in Jan. 2028, to hold the government to account and move us towards socialism with the speed and urgency necessary, then I don't think they actually understand our plight.
