"1. This statement has been criticized. I stand by it. CLRJ"

And yet they were surprisingly moderate, then and afterwards, far more humane than their masters had been or would ever be to them. They did not maintain this revengeful spirit for long. The cruelties of property and privilege are always more ferocious than the revenges of poverty and oppression. For the one aims at perpetuating resented injustice, the other is merely a momentary passion soon appeased. ~ C. L. R. James, The Black Jacobins

Also James Carville for the @nytimes.com, opinion piece from 25 Feb 2025, titled "It’s Time for a Daring Political Maneuver, Democrats"

Screenshot from nytimes.com op-ed titled "It’s Time for a Daring Political Maneuver, Democrats" by James Carville, which reads:

"And there’s nothing Democrats can legitimately do to stop it, even if we wanted to.
With no clear leader to voice our opposition and no control in any branch of government,
it’s time for Democrats to embark on the most daring political maneuver in the history of
our party: roll over and play dead. Allow the Republicans to crumble beneath their own
weight and make the American people miss us. Only until the Trump administration has
spiraled into the low 40s or high 30s in public approval polling percentages should we
make like a pack of hyenas and go for the jugular. Until then, I’m calling for a strategic
political retreat.
The Army has a term for this: tactical pause. It’s a vision move — get out of the hour-to-
hour, day-to-day combat where one side (ours) is largely playing defense and struggling
to defend politically charged positions (like explaining D.E.I. or persuading voters to care
about foreign aid) and take time to regroup, look forward and make decisions about
where we want to get to over the next two years. I don’t think a lot of Americans are
waiting around for us to use the same old arguments and same old language to pile on
Donald Trump. They’re tired of it, and our Democratic voters are tired of watching us
moan and groan to cover up our impotency out of power. They want us to be smarter than
that."

Without any audio, I assume he sounds exactly like Otto Preminger from Stalag 17.

After a few instances of ICE being chased outta my hood (or NYC entirely) in recent weeks, I'm recognizing a kindred spirit in the squirrels in my yard whenever a sus cat or dog won't take the hint & gets an earful for it.

The choice now, to quote Red Rosa, is between socialism or barbarism. There is no middle ground left to stand on, as Andrew Cuomo learned last night, just before it completely fell out from under him.

Is Hussein speaking on behalf of the party? Or attending to inquire on their stance? (Asking in earnest b/c UK politics are over my head and it was unclear out of context) Also, I dont think "third spaces" means what he thinks it means. 🤦🏻

Screenshot of the initial tweet from Adnan Hussein: "We will be putting some questions to Jeremy on Saturday's Your Party event in Blackburn in order for people to get a better understanding of the new party. If you have a question you'd like to ask him, please either inbox or comment on this post."
Followed two replies from TERF accounts, the second reply is the tweet from Manchester Feminists that Hussein later quote tweeted (Hussein's QT was the screenshot shared by the OP).

Tell me you invented spam w/o saying you invented spam.

An E-COM advertisement from Forbes Magazine on December 19, 1983. The heading at the top reads, "How to give an ounce of mail a ton of [...]" directly above the giant embossed text "IMPACT!" exploding through a wall like Kool-aid Man together with a blue and white E-COM envelope. The body text reads: "The distinctive look of an E-COM® letter carries a lot of weight with recipients. The bold blue stripe conveys a sense of urgency. So the message inside is conveyed effectively. Consider the impact E-COM service could give your sales letters, promotional announcements and invoices. Then consider the fact that with E-COM service, the post office computer does all the work. You simply have your messages transmitted to us as data-either directly by telephone or by an E-COM communications carrier. We print your letters, inserting any personalized text you may specify. We fold them. Then we mall them-First-Class Mail-in eye-stopping envelopes that make people start reading. For more information, call your communications carrier or your local Postmaster. We'll help you figure out the best way to link up with E-COM service. And show you how an ounce of mail can carry a lot more weight."

If ppl *really* wanted to hurt him, they would sell their teslas then put all the money into a strike fund for his factory workers. They're the ones with the real power to shut him down, way faster than a consumer boycott w/o any clear demands.

Screen Capture of AlterNet article, which reads, "Because Musk is unelected, the protest movement urges people to make their voices heard as consumers—by selling their vehicles, getting rid of their stock in Tesla, and showing up to protest."
