The last article you’ll ever need to read about Nithya—I give you my latest honkings in Geese:
After a contentious debate that has claimed center stage in the organization's discourse, a cross-tendency group of DSA-LA leaders argues for endorsing Nithya Raman for mayor against liberal incumbent Karen Bass. The authors believe this decision will consolidate other chapter campaigns around the most high-profile race in the city, engage with the material realities of the working class, and move Los Angeles closer to DSA's ultimate political horizon. The endorsement vote begins today and runs until September 1st. If you are a member of DSA-LA, make your voice heard by casting your vote before the deadline.

When states cut progressive taxes like property and income, they hose working people with all these nonsense taxes and fees. What Rick Jackson wants for Georgia.

This is incredible! Karen Bass is now the Republican candidate for Mayor of L.A.!
Has Mayor Karen Bass become the Republican candidate in LA’s mayoral race? One poll says she has! @KFIAM640

Seems like those who don't want mega-publishers like EA or MS to shut down game studios might want to push for French-style labor protections.
Not only this, but Bethesda and Xbox signed a contract with Disney/Marvel for the Blade project, and if the game is cancelled and Arkane is shuttered, not only will Microsoft have to pay out extended severance, they will ALSO likely have to pay Disney and Marvel a large sum for violating/shredding said contract.
Also, this idea that Microsoft and Xbox have been the ONLY ones footing the bill for this game is ludicrous, as evidently Disney and Marvel poured some of their own money into the project as well. Microsoft is out here acting petty like they can no longer afford this game when they just purchased Kojima’s PHYSINT and spent untold hundreds of millions on Gears of War: E-DAY.

Honestly moreso than managing to finish the game in under 2 years (which required unhealthy crunch) I did respect DA2's complete swerve towards a narrative where you get relentlessly crushed by the forces of history in a genre that's usually very "great man" in tone
Dragon Age II was developed in less than a year and a half.
With that in mind, it’s a borderline masterpiece.

We finally found out what can get the DSA left to side with Zionists and anti-socialist right wing Democrats. Allying to block new housing from being built!

Nithya represents transparent socialist governance in LA. We haven’t heard from Bass for years and now see her on our feeds, right on time for election season. Much like Zohran, Nithya will be updating and engaging discourse with the people both online and irl directly from day 1
LA has spent four years asking: Where is our mayor?
When I’m mayor, you won’t have to ask.
LA deserves a city that shows up for us. A Los Angeles that loves us back. Let’s go get it.

Lenin isn't the final authority on anything but it's very clear he didn't share the view of people coming out of the 60s and later Third Worldist tradition where the lower your position on the global division of labor is the more revolutionary you are.

Appreciate this answer from Angie Nixon on why she joined DSA.
There is one opposition party in Florida and that’s DSA!

You sympathize with someone donating against a DSA endorsed candidate? As an NPC member??
