I can't fathom the mindset that can keep a person from recognizing that they're physically, politically, culturally, academically, and residentially in community with the people in the university where they do their professional work, let alone specifically the ones who actually live on the campus.

Students are visitors. Those who live off campus, sure, might make sense. But otherwise, they have little business voting where they go to school.

Every time (hopefully, Democratic Senator to be) Roy Cooper speaks on the matter of murder, terrorism, and other brutal criminality by police or ICE, he affirms his believe that it is good and necessary, and merely misapplied.
Post by @RoyCooperNC:

Border Patorl and ICE should do their jobs to make sure our borders are secure and violent criminals here illegally are deported. Both organizations need real accountability and should not be operating a detention facility in North Carolina. They are killing and detaining American citizens, including people with no criminal records and it must stop.

Figures like Emmett Till and Martin Luther King had false accusations leveled against them because of their identities and (in MLK’s case) him standing up to racial apartheid. Graham Platner has stood up to apartheid aswell (Israel), and as such he is facing just a bit of what they did.

I'm not going to bother with explaining how that non-sequitur isn't relevant to touting a slaver's specific dedication to the cause of slavery as a positive, because because I've spent too much of my time already addressing your racist assholery, whether your stupidity is genuine or an act.

Not only did the school fire her, they expelled the couple's four children as well. womensfoundca.org/woman-fired-...
Instead of rallying around Charlesworth and her four children, who also attended Holy Trinity, during this undoubtedly difficult and scary time, the school district decided to terminate Charlesworth and – in a particularly sinister move – request that her children also leave the school.

It's astounding to see a social media post from the Roy Cooper campaign with any mention of who has deliberately inflicted the problem he proposes to solve on the public, instead of his usual, responsibility-free, Republican-exonerating "DC is broken" pablum. What happened?
Screenshot of Facebook post by Roy Cooper:

Sixteen years ago, the ACA became law, giving Americans access to quality, affordable health care.
Today, that progress is being rolled back. DC Republicans refused to extend the ACA tax credits, spiking costs for working families — and Michael Whatley has backed these efforts at every turn.

Sure, Roy. The problem here is that the death squad murdered the wrong person, not that there's a death squad and they murder. Roy Cooper is not the man for this moment or any other.
Screenshot of facebook post by presumptive Democratic nominee for Senate, Roy Cooper of North Carolina: "These horrific shootings in Minnesota should not have happened -- American citizens should not be targeted and killed. As someone who has prosecuted violent criminals, I understand the importance of federal resources to fight crime, including resources focus on deporting violent criminals -- but these actions don't make people safe and this chaos needs to stop.

Really, this couple of skeets is an exemplar.
On what "is": DSA "is" a social welfare organization and some of us organize as a "pre-party" formation, but it's not a party. However, this pundit's aim is to stoke suspicion *about* socialism (too white) so calling it a party is not a complement, it's to make it seem like it's a plot against POCs.

There's talking about what "should be" and then dealing with what *is*. 

The hard reality is, that the Dem Socialist party is 92% white. 

That means something is deeply broken -- and/or intentionally exclusionary.

to say DSA "is" a party in that framework is misleading. We don't have the reach and power of the D or R "parties," controlled by the wealthy, who don't think about beating *DSA*/the left (except to show their power). they further their class interests through establishment pols, whether D or R.

DSA IS *too white,* but it has primarily to do with our current *lack* of power compared to the ruling class "parties." It can be analyzed intersectionally. For one: whites can join nascent (weak) left orgs and face far less risk and scrutiny than racially oppressed people.

String of responses by Sean Kelleher to post by Karen Attiah about hearing from white men that the terror caused by Trump is the same as they felt under Obama.

He says that this post is among those that make liberal white people support Trump, mentions that his experience of whiteness includes being beaten and bullied by Black men and teenagers, and accuses her of seeking and failing to find a "white male caricature" in him.

bsky screenshot. Andy Famigliatti's reskeet of Simon Pratt's comment on the UCLA attack that "semi-authoritarian...state forces pull back and allow pro regime counter protestors to move in and do violence": This is what the whole country is going to look like in January 2025 if November 2024 goes the wrong way.

My reply: "This article, illustrated with pictures taken yesterday, is what it looks like now, and has looked like for years, every time people protest against the corruption and brutality of police who murder with impunity. It will not cease to look like this in eight months under incumbents."

Andy's response: "Enjoy Trump forcibly deporting 11 million people, banning contraception through the mail, and using the insurrection act to put down street protests to the following. When we're in the camps together, we can commiserate."
