I sure wish I had some of this mysterious wealth you think we all have. I'm in that 30-35% that don't own any property and have few if any assets. Another ignored minority.

Depends on who is defining Zionists. For many Zionists, my stance vis a vis Israel and Palestine would exclude me from their groups too. Your broad brush categorizations are exactly what has put so many progressive Jews in an impossible position with no home. Great job excluding us.

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

That's what we thought in the 60s and 70s. You can learn our lesson the hard way too, or glean better strategies from our experience.

I would not feel welcome at my local dsa chapter, simply because my more than fair attitude to both sides of the Israeli Palestinian situation does not meet their products test.

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Srsly? The progress I've seen in my 71 years was significant even if not enough or all we want and need, and is now being turned around and eviscerated. These so called centrists have done a lot for a lot of people.

Sorry to burst your bubble but there are significant portions of the official DSA platform that are not at all in line with the policies and goals of what the even ptogressive democrats have advocated for 8 decades

The voting totals disprove your thesis.

The hell, you say, some of us put our lives on the line. In active protesting and advocacy for change. Let's see what you do when push comes to shove. Talking revolution is one thing actually doing it is another.

A clear reading of the dsa's public platform proves what you say to be incorrect.

Winning, yeah, maybe in a few spots here and there where their positions are reflected among the majority of the population. But overall, nah it ain't happening.

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Take a dose of your own medicine and look closely at the financial status of the leadership of dsa.

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

And what makes you so positive that the dsa will succeed where the democrats have "failed" (if you don't consider all the progressive things that democrats have accomplished over the last 8 decades

So what's your realistic achievable alternative?

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

I think you'll discover that maybe tens of you are actually thinking that, not tens of millions. It's easy to believe you're a revolutionary and will act that way when the time comes. But when push comes to shove, not so much. Take it from those who went through this experience decades ago.

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

The DSA is the center? That's just in your imagination. That may be true is some countries, but not here. You're just not the majority, and you need to accept that. Coalitions are what win, not purist factions.

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

For those curious, the two questions were "how long have you been a Christian?", and the second asking which Christian faith tradition you associated with.

I have never been a Christian & I am none of the listed traditions. I am Jewish. I have a MTS degree from Vanderbilt Divinity School. I have been using Logos software for 25 years, & current subscriber. I can't be the only non-Christian utilizing your platform. This survey is grossly insulting 2/3

MigdalorGuy @migdalorguy.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

I recently sent this to the folks at Logos/Faithlife: I was unable to complete the survey you recently sent me via Qualtrics because I could not respond to two questions, which did not have any viable option for me to choose (not even an "other) that would enable me to submit the survey. 1/3

I just don't do gorey horror. Why would ST:SNW subject me to this utterly painful experience? This has forever scarred my love for Star Trek. ST had successfully done psychological horror before. There was no reason for this gratuitous gore, 1/2

Okay. I just saw The Odyssey at an early access preview. I need a bit of time to digest what I've watched. I will say only this: it is a film that needs to be seen. While doing so it is best to keep in mind that it is a cinematic take on Homer's epic. Please don't view that caveat pejoratively.

@nytimes re today's mini: this symbol # is not a musical sharp symbol. It's a pound/number/octothorp. This ♯ is a musical sharp. Notice how it does not have straight horizontal lines. They angle upwards to prevent their being confused with the lines of the musical staff.

@senbooker on NPR right now joins the wall of shame along with @govsherrillnj insisting that public safety concerns override the free right to assemble and protest at Delaney Hall, again referencing non-specific people from out of state. Disappointing. The Minutemen roll in their graves.

Boomer here with an imaginative enough brain that the words in a digital editing adds just as powerful at evoking and animating my brain as print. The book "smell" and "feel" have proven to be, too me, over time, merely nostalgia that add nothing except to a work that is heated at evoking nostalgia
