    this would make sense for actual (democratic) socialists, not socdems like AOC, Bernie Sanders or Mamdani

      I mean…the DSA’s whole playbook is running on dem tickets, then voting out the establishment leadership once you have a majority and grabbing that pocketbook.

      the two party system is designed specifically to neuter 3rd parties. until the US has proportional and un-gerrymandered representation that doesn’t change.

      Bernie is kinda doing his own thing, AOC has to know the Dem’s are crooked as fuck by now…guarentee you any kind of proper progressive reform passes through congress and she votes alongside the DSA. and mamdani especially is classic DSA-dino.

          interesting, the various zionist rags out there are all complaining his cabinet has too many anti-zionist connections…ime whoever’s on the opposite side of those tends to be right.

          personally, my own thought on this would be…why the fuck should a NYC mayoral office give two shits about israel one way or the other again?

          they’re managing NYC not Zion, so why should anyone care at all about their personal views on it matter, unless they’re actively/directly helping israel level apartment blocs and starve babies it is entirely irrelevant.
