Because it would inevitably have meant in practice supporting & coalescing around the Democratic party, who *are* the popular front. That's the bottom dollar.
The inability to create a left-liberal popular front in the 2010s against this will probably be studied for decades

These are the moments the left builds organizations to anticipate, these are the moments we prepare for. No more talk about being "beyond bandwidth" or "at capacity," we have to leave it all on the field. The role we were meant to play in history is happening *now*.

The moment is extremely dire, but it bear repetition that moments like these are where the left needs to demonstrate real leadership in battling the forces of consolidated capital and the fascist right

Listening to NPR right now reporting on the NYC mayoral race and they are reporting how the early voting analysis is showing a younger electorate while not mentioning Mamdani once lolololol

Thank you @BernieSanders for lending your voice to our fight to protect public healthcare, research, and education, and end unfair labor practices at the @UofCalifornia. Our patients, communities, and students can't wait #union #FightOligarchy

MAY DAY STRIKE LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
UC continues to act with impunity, publicly announcing & implementing a hiring freeze without providing UPTE notice or a chance to bargain effects. This freeze will only worsen the already dire conditions our patients, students, and research face. RSVP: https://t.co/rYAx5t5g4W

UPTE members from UCLA, UCI, and UCR joined Sen. @BernieSanders and Rep. @AOC Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at the “Fighting Oligarchy” rally in LA. We stand proudly with them and the movement supporting workers, public healthcare, education, & research. #UnionStrong #FightOligarchy

If UC thinks it can get away with bad-faith bargaining, unilateral healthcare hikes, and divide-and-conquer tactics against new UPTE members, think again. #Strike #StrikeReady #Solidarity #UC

Tomorrow I'm proud to be joining 20,000 of my coworkers and colleagues on a statewide ULP strike. There is a staffing crisis in the UC, and if administration is not going to lift a finger it's up to the workers to sound the alarm. https://t.co/JYKKvMD7G3

The only thing stronger than my anger with the UC right now is the excitement I have to picket with my union siblings in @UPTECWA and @afscme3299

The University of California has left 5 out of 7 jobs running the state's only bird flu testing lab *empty* for most of this year, and they still have the nerve to tell the lab workers' union there's no problem.
There is no staffing crisis at UC. Data that we’ve already shared with UPTE shows that headcount is going UP, separations are declining, and turnover is flattening. There is no truth to this claim. Continuing to repeat it does not make it true.
