Day 3 of agreeing with @thehousered and I don't like it.
Police repression will not deter the growing anti-war movement that is sick and tired of the U.S. war machine. Our urgent task is to join the struggle now, develop long-term relationships with student activists, and build the power to make a free Palestine a reality. 🇵🇸🌹

Thanks to heroic fundraising and difficult cuts, DSA is already below its deficit goal this year. We can find a compromise that balances the budget, but the NPC must be willing to negotiate. Show solidarity by joining the DSA Union call on 4/29 @ 8pm EST bit.ly/npcmou

Lawful student protest on any @CUNY campus should not be met with NYPD arrests, including today's demonstration at @CityCollegeNY. Administration can & must ensure students' safety and prevent harassment on campus without resorting to the forcible removal of peaceful protestors
Jane is right: winning matters most. There are no shortcuts to transforming our society, & no rewards for sitting on the sidelines. Mass politics are full of contradictions, but the alternative is irrelevance. Jane has given so many the courage to win — we’re forever grateful.

Ithaca DSA stands in complete and total solidarity with the brave students currently occupying the Arts Quad on Cornell University Campus. See below for our full statement.

There’s no more vital electoral contest for the US left this cycle.
There’s no more vital electoral contest for the US left this cycle.
Earlier today, I visited the encampment on the Arts Quad at Cornell University. I saw students engaged in peaceful protest, standing for peace & against genocide. @Cornell must rescind its threats of suspension of protestors and should continue engaging with students peacefully.
Is the point here that we should return to the pre-Bernie left? Bernie was bad for the left? There haven't had big protests since Bernie? Because of Bernie?

Chag pesach sameach to everyone celebrating Passover in NY-16 and around the country! I hope everyone enjoys their seder and is able to celebrate with friends and family today.
"There has been no due process on the Columbia campus," says professor Mahmood Mamdani (@mm1124) about to suspensions and evictions of undergraduate pro-Palestine student-protesters by the Columbia and Barnard administrations.
So incredible to see a room this big so excited about DSA’s national program to help working class people get rank and file jobs. If you want to help build a militant labor movement from the shop floor, check out WOW!
For labor notes I wrote a thing! The socialist organizers’ heart must be as big as our unions and the whole working class. While we are often a minority of union members, we should keep our eyes on the prize—organizing super-majorities to fight the bosses.

Good thread on the DSA union situation. It has been depressing to see some socialists make arguments indistinguishable from right wing arguments against public sector unions.
A comprehensive rundown of the terms of this proposal (and the counter), from the perspective of a (former) union negotiator. 🧵 (Disclaimer: I have no interest or stake in DSA factional nonsense/am not a member, but I am a @WBNG32035 member, and these are my union siblings.)

We are willing to compromise. We’ve offered the NPC 2 staff to lay off in addition to the 7 folks who have already left during just this NPC term. This totals more than half a million dollars of additional savings beyond the NPC’s deficit goals. Our MOU: docs.google.com/document/d/1vb…
@lodgepolepines Staff unions are great, just not when it's *my* staff
The mass layoffs at DSA are bad bc they will decimate DSA’s organizing capacity, they’re bad bc not justified by financial necessity anymore (if they ever were), but they’re also bad bc the leadership of a socialist organization is very publicly justifying them by arguing…
If you follow this logic, nonprofit unions, public sector unions, and unions for union staff aren’t legitimate unions.
@CliffConnolly how is this any different than the typical argument against public sector unions
@centristmarxist out of curiosity do you think there are other provisions of labor law that the DSA should be able to ignore? Like we’re mission-driven here, so really it should be fine to do stuff like wage theft and maintaining an unsafe workplace. For the mission!
@centristmarxist The casual snark being displayed while people lose their jobs makes me hope you never hold direct power over any aspect of another person's life.
"the organization which enforces union rights are cops" is just insane
Like seriously, you can’t call the US a police state and advocate for a socialist state and then call the cops on your fellow socialists. That’s textbook wrecker shit. If I was a police spy in the org I would do shit like this.
The NLRB aren’t cops, and if DSA is violating the NLRA the responsibility for the violation is on the employer, not the workers. The remedy would also literally be “knock it off.” They can’t assess damages.

AOC is good. If you're looking for someone who actively works against the movement, this is my congressman. He not only accepts hundreds of thousands of $$$ from AIPAC and supports the genocide, but also parrots white segregationist George Wallace.
Police repression will not deter the growing anti-war movement that is sick and tired of the U.S. war machine. Our urgent task is to join the struggle now, develop long-term relationships with student activists, and build the power to make a free Palestine a reality. 🇵🇸🌹

Thanks to heroic fundraising and difficult cuts, DSA is already below its deficit goal this year. We can find a compromise that balances the budget, but the NPC must be willing to negotiate. Show solidarity by joining the DSA Union call on 4/29 @ 8pm EST bit.ly/npcmou

bowman haters screaming, crying, throwing up
Reps AOC & @JamaalBowmanNY are at Columbia, listening to people’s experiences before surveying the Gaza Solidarity Encampment. Bowman was listening to faculty experiences & observations, then did the same for students after reading community agreements, before AOC arrived.

This kind of discourse, in this case and more generally, is the enemy of solidarity.
I love how white people scream "I'm a professor," like that's supposed to make them immune to police brutality
