It’s the 1921 Italian anti-fascist Arditi del Popolo flag held by Mamdani supporters versus the Israeli flag and Curtis Sliwa campaign posters held by people pissed that Mamdani flipped off the Colombus statue in 2020.

If some of you online activists are not going to basebuild, or do non transactional organizing, or like talk to a person with a different opinion, the least you can do is touch more grass and post less so I don’t feel like becoming a Luddite because I’m tired of the same debates!.

This is a USA thing, but we have to resist the urge to feel we can skip all the work because of one victory. We still are in empire, we still are deeply unorganized, and we still haven’t built the infrastructure to win, let alone build a party. These expectations are unrealistic.
