“The billionaire class has sought to convince those making $30-an-hour that their enemies are those earning $20-an-hour. They want the people to fight amongst ourselves so that we remain distracted from the work of remaking a long, broken system.” -Zohran Mamdani

poetic justice.

Zohran was polling at 6% in January. Cuomo and his supporters spent tens of millions to defeat him. And yet he won. Our movements are stronger than their money.

that was one helluva speech. congratulations, mamdani. congratulations to the every day working person in New York City.

Just over 4 years ago, @ZohranKMamdani and I were arrested for civil disobedience— fighting for debt relief for taxi workers. Zohran has always been a fighter. Tomorrow, we will elect him to be our next Mayor. Proud to do this work with you brother.

go where you’re loved. be with who loves. celebrate where ever love lives. honor love. protect love. cherish love. conjure love. be love. love is a political technology. do love.

🚨BREAKING!! The BBC compiles evidence that Israel has been shooting children in the head & chest (signs of targeted sniping & killing) Over 60% of murdered children revealed this pattern of injury. Israels trial at the Hague will be a keystone event in the history of humanity

As you remember Palestine, remember Sudan, remember Congo. We are all fighting the same oppressor.

I just watched the video of IOF soldiers taking turns to rape a Palestinian teenager until he died I feel physically sick I’ve never seen anything more brutal, horrifying & traumatic in all my life IOF soldiers are more monstrous than I thought it was possible for humans to be

The single best moment in the Mamdani campaign was when he answered this question - he did something critical: he flipped the narrative being pushed specifically to corner him. All the candidates were asked where they’d take their first trip to as mayor, and they mostly said
