Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I 100% agree with everything you said
Personally, I think a challenge to Jeffries is coming alongside a challenge to Schumer. The way AOC is posturing seems as though a run for president or senate is coming. AOC isn’t perfect but would be a hell of a lot better than Schumer and wouldn’t take a ton of heavy DSA lifting to win that election. If she were able to campaign alongside somebody challenging Jeffries in NY I think it would be a pretty easy two-for-one campaign.
“Isn’t perfect” lmfao
I supposed we’d prefer Chuck Schumer
I’d prefer Chuck Schumer be in a gas chamber but saying AOC isn’t perfect is like saying Mitt Romney isn’t quite as progressive as we’d like.
Trying to figure out what a beliefs a person has who wants to see DSA dissolve but not AOC prominently fail
Didn’t say I want the DSA to dissolve or that I want AOC to fail, I just don’t see what liberal infighting has to do with socialism. I will admit I’d like to see fake socialists discredited because I think that actually helps us.
If AOC was the right wing of the democrats things would definitely be better. I'm not a New Yorker but if she replaced Schumer that would be a good thing for sure. Schumer has quite literally done nothing positive in his position for however long that's been. I want to say 8-12 years. I used to wonder what that piece of shit was even doing in politics. Now I get it. He just loves Israel.
Wym? He officially renamed the Big Beautiful Bill even though everybody still calls it that
