I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.

One of the most disgusting things about the Islamophobic attacks from republicans on Democratic nominee for NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is that corporate Democrats are making virtually the same racist attacks against him.

The Democratic Party should be embarrassed that they’re using MAGA talking points to attack their own nominee. Pathetic and cowardly. They sure are earning their 26% approval rating.

@QasimRashid As long as corporatist Democrats run the party, sad to say, that won't change. Corporations don't like anything that might derail their gravy train.
@QasimRashid Until the democrats wean themselves from the billionaire money tree they will create the same candidates wearing slightly different colours
@QasimRashid so many in Democratic Party were only there to bring a politesse and manners to despotism.
This post I read today really sums up how ‘manners’ is another kind of control.

New piece of writing on how British politeness and 'manners' are the last surviving pillars of the Empire. 'Not all legacies of the British Empire are loud. Some are quiet, habitual, and dressed in good intentions. In the UK, tone still trumps truth, and politeness remains more culturally sacred than justice.' https://kristiedegaris.substack.com/p/please-thank-you-and-other-forms-of-control #Writing #WritingCommunity #Culture #Scotland

@QasimRashid yeah, it's almost as if the democrats are just Republicans with different color shirts and slightly higher mental capacities?
@QasimRashid
There is not much left of value in the Democratic Party. They are in the claws of AIPAC. I'm looking for an alternative party.
@QasimRashid Dems are MAGA who listen to NPR.
