Discovery+, one of the streamers now owned by David Ellison’s media monopoly Skydance, hiked its prices exactly one week after the merger officially closed. Employees have already been told to expect layoffs — while top executives received pay bumps. Monopolies are only good for the monopolists.

My family and I were worshipping at our Hindu temple in Aurora on Sunday when a white supremacist attempted a mass shooting targeting Indian Americans. I'm grateful to those who prevented a tragedy, but we must all come together to confront the hatred that put so many innocent lives at risk.

Why this is infuriating to people who've been in these roles. 1) Boo-hoo-hoo about busy schedule before disastrous first briefing. This is *what it's like* in the big leagues. 2) Calling herself a lawyer: Most of us are *very* careful about the distinctions we've earned, and haven't. She isn't.

many centrists are as disdainful of science as MAGA these days. virtually every study on the topic, and there have been many, show that youth programs reduce crime. it's a settled question. this is no different from claiming vaccines are a hoax.

This is an example of Fox News’s ridiculous propaganda. The right’s viral conspiracy smear of James Talarico was debunked by video evidence. So Fox blames Talarico’s campaign for not releasing the video earlier - instead of the rightwing smear artists who made up and spread the conspiracy.

Living in Texas, and watching the (absolutely ridiculous) political ads they vomit up, I can say that the obsession with trans ppl is definitely on the anti-Talerico side. You can't go 5 seconds into a critique without hearing, "but trans..." And Vance just proved the point.

it’s actually crazy that DSA has embraced YIMBY candidates in NYC, LA, and DC …but @dsasf.org is somehow still scaremongering about YIMBYs and refusing to support car free streets because it could somehow theoretically benefit a real estate developer somewhere
Segments of the American working class depend on automobiles, so the socialist answer should not be to dismiss these concerns, but to work with the communities impacted to demand safe, fast, free, reliable public transit across the West Side and the rest of the City. Similarly, fears of real estate speculotion and gentrification associated with the park conversion must be taken seriously and channeled through organizing for social housing, tenant unions, and the decoupling of land from the private speculative market.
These contradictions speak to the need for real solutions to the real problems surfaced by this proposition. Prop G sits at the intersection of the real estate development interests of the past and present contending with serious environmental consequences. Ultimately, only radical transformations like A Green New Deal that address the root causes of these contradictions can resolve these issues. Capitalists and their political representatives will only present bandaids that pit the working class against itself. In stark contrast, DSA organizes for sociolism to truly offer the Freedom to Flourish for all people.
