Been thinking about this quote while reading some of the reactions to Pope Leo XIV's apostolic exhortation "Dilexi te." It's from Servant of God Dom Hélder Câmara, who served as Archbishop of Olinda and Recife, in Brazil.

Gonzalez: I don't care what your job is. I don't care what part of the state you live in. I don't care where you came from. You have more in common with an undocumented farm worker than you did with the fucking billionaires who are causing this problem in the first place

1m1v would likely create a DSA leadership more reflective of our Berniecrat membership & less reflective of far left caucuses/activists I think that's both more democratic & (most importantly) better politically since our path to growth = leaning into Zohran-type mass politics

Wish we'd stop assuming there's a timeless "right" answer to organizational democracy: there's always a context-specific tension between its depth & breadth More deliberation stops being good (or real) when only a sliver of people participate—e.g. horizontalist Occupy assemblies
Our NPC candidate Ella Teevan digs into her background in nonprofits to explain why DSA's approach to membership is one of our great strengths -- a strength convention delegates must vote to protect.

While we await results, one thing is clear: @ZohranKMamdani and @nycDSA have made history! Hundreds of thousands of working-class people have stood up to the capitalist class to demand a more affordable and livable New York City. Win or lose, the fight is just beginning! Join DSA

Tonight was the very last candidate forum in the special election for County Supervisor, hosted by the Spring Valley Chamber and @BAPACSD. Here was the first question: “If elected, will black lives matter in your policymaking?” I said YES. John McCann said NO.

John McCann just stated that Black lives will NOT matter in his policy-making if he is elected Supervisor in San Diego County's D1. A real "mask off" moment.
