REMINDER: A socialist act by a New Yorker was a major reason why polio was eliminated in the US.

@Nick_Pettigrew
Polio was eradicated because Jonas Salk chose not to patent the vaccine, if you want a perfect example of a socialist act.

Socialism is like polio, it comes back when people forget about the horrible damage it did last time.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.
Photo of NBC’s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

I think at some point we have to stop indulging the fiction that conservatism is a legitimate political tendency and isn't simply a grievance cult for those who value the ability to enact cruelty over their literal basic needs.

Family, this is not a big ask, and it's Pride month. I'd love to see some of our allies do the actual ally thing and help these two out. Donating directly will always do more good than giving to big orgs or politicians, and certainly more than supporting rainbow capitalism.

Going through captive audience meetings was a really low point in the Bandcamp unionization process. Managers lined up to say awful shit, including spurious comparisons to white supremacists. All those people are still there, while many of us who fought for a union are still struggling to find work.
