I’m happy to have Labor Day twice but let’s remember why en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labor_Day
President Grover Cleveland was one of those concerned that a labor holiday on May 1 would tend to become a commemoration of the Haymarket affair and would strengthen socialist and anarchist movements that backed the May 1 commemoration around the globe.[18] In 1887, he publicly supported the September Labor Day holiday as a less inflammatory alternative,[19] formally adopting the date as a United States federal holiday through a law he signed in 1894.[2]

If you want to be a revolutionary you need to learn how to knock on a stranger’s door, sit through a tedious meeting, monitor an ICE raid, moved a resolution through a hostile room, how to manage an influx of members etc. DSA can give you that experience. That is the beginning and the end of it.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.
