Last month the DSA lords stole the valor of nordic countries, now they're stealing FDR's valor. Franklin famously wanted to replace capitalism with socialism! And then abolish police and prisons.

New deal democrats probably wouldn't simply surrender to lunatics who attack public servants by making the bus fare zero. They probably also wouldn't be prison abolitionists etc www.yahoo.com/news/sociali... www.dsausa.org/working-grou...

Socialist Zohran Mamdani once questioned ‘purpose’ of prisons, jails — raising alarm bells: ‘It’s scary’
“But the rules of civil society that make this city the luxury item most of Zohran’s constituency want to live in is a product of that - bad people in jail so they can pretend they live on a movie set...

Fine I don't disagree. It's just that 'she's too old' is a cynical view

Ok then criticize her for that. Obviously the ageism card is cynical and unprincipled.

Why Donald Trump is obsessed with Portland
Portland is the latest American city where Trump said he’ll send the military. But his fixation on Oregon is different.

Idk what your point is. Has Pelosi gone full Feinstein or?

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 29/09/2025
'It's ok for our 80 year old representatives to be on death's door and have heart attacks e.g. if I agree with them' Pelosi still seems to be productive to me; iirc she was one of the people who got Biden to withdraw from the race

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 29/09/2025
If Pelosi was doing all that, she'd still be called too old and unfit to serve etc I see recent pieces from nytimes, foxnews, guardian e.g. about Bernie. And as ever he is popular on social media. You are unserious.

Where 90% of the internet pretends not to know that 'antifa' in 2025 means Far left "black bloc" anarchists, etc in the PNW. Yes I'm sure your great grandfather at the Battle of the Bulge wanted to abolish the state or alternatively, enact Maoism

All right then your initial comment is just an opinion. You may as well delete it. Go on subreddits for Seattle and Portland and tell them their local antifas are just an idea and see what they say. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_Ci...

It's just threads that talk about antifa in Portland. It seems to me they are a well-known local 'organization' for lack of a better word.

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
What did you make of the 'black bloc'-clad protesters in the Floyd era? That's (at least somewhat) Portland's Antifa. old.reddit.com/r/Portland/s...

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
I think Trump doing this and that against Antifa is a waste. That doesn't mean that it doesn't exist in a practical sense, small as their numbers are and as insignificant as they are

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
Been where? The PNW? Yes, 'Antifa' in the US is made up of small decentralized groups

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
What's the misinfo? Rose City Antifa doesn't exist and doesn't '[oppose] fascist organizing through direct action, education, and through solidarity with leftist spaces, activists, and organizations'? You're the only one talking about BLM rosecityantifa.org

Good point. CNN should write an article saying this.

There were meetings and coordination in the George Floyd era at least. This is all merely an idea? Look up the Torch Network. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_Ci...

There are little autonomous antifas in US cities. They had a prominent role in the George Floyd protests (particularly in the Pacific Northwest). Even right-wingers would probably accept there's no one Centralized Organized Antifa but a movement still exists and is not mere philosophy.

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
It exists in the sense that there are 'black bloc' self-described antifascists, anarchists etc in Philly, NY, Portland, Seattle, LA, SF, ... Are they centralized no, but the 'movement' definitely exists. E.g. rosecityantifa.org

What's the misinfo. The suspect's trans girlfriend supplied texts saying the suspect killed Kirk for his 'hatred'. Even Wikipedia (which is controlled by your average bluesky user) acknowledges this info

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
I don't care whether bsky allows it, I'm just saying it's an inane moral victory to ban it, if your concern is bigotry/hate being spread. This site has indeed set itself apart as a DSA safe space and I'm not sure a failure to nick the Post threatens this.

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 17/09/2025
Well America is safer than it was in 1990, and NY is safer than Memphis. So kindly never complain about violence in the USA again thank you.

Don't think you have to worry about the Amazing Shrinking DSA Safe Space becoming Twitter

Freddy Dans @freddydans.bsky.social · 16/09/2025
The bluesky use case is 'Block anything and everything that is slightly distasteful'. You are your own moderator. Anyway, the site banning the Post is inane, as competing sites who dwarf bsky many times over still exist and allow it.

Probably still is and this post is just lucky

They had a senate majority. President Bernie could have increased the number of justices in a month at most.

It's clear he thinks it's bad if you read the article (and also, if you've seen his movies). He basically thinks even debating it is a waste here

How so? He also told Hasan 'What would we do from the very first day is pursue every alternative to incarceration that we have.' For repeat violent offenders too? There's quite the preponderant evidence he's a prison abolitionist, not least his beloved dsa 'demanding' explicit abolition.
