Ben Temchine @abuasher.bsky.social · 08/10/2026as a trade unionist and jewish activist who stayed in jewish spaces, spoke the word genocide and fought for change without ceding jewishness, this is just a weird take.

Ben Temchine @abuasher.bsky.social · 08/08/2026All I would add is what I’ve learned working in labor unions. It was a choice to let organized labor get suffocated by regulation, laws and court decisions. The Democrats chose SV over labor. And they have been killed for it. Their elite doesn’t come from locals anymore, it comes from college dems. 27612
