He/him. Birmingham, Alabama. HEMA, hiking, caving, tabletops. DSA Birmingham

  1. City councilwoman was found with a meth lab in her basement. It was allegedly her son's (believable) and she knew nothing about it(unbelievable)

    Small-town people, what's your favorite small-town "scandal" from where you're from?

    Mine's the time a local constable had a stomach ache, bought some Pepto, went back to his car, unclasped his belt and started shaking the Pepto bottle and someone called the cops on him for masturbating in his car.

  2. The surrealness of Cuomo (or whoever runs his account) tweeting about DSA factions aside, the idea that DSA would collapse in 3 months over a bad politician is very funny. Mamdani could stroke out and become fetterman 2.0 and the worst thing that would happen would be a 500 page forum argument

    It's obviously not true that DSA is crumbling under the weight of internal contradictions. NYC-DSA is almost entirely united behind Mamdani, national DSA also sees him as a major success (despite not technically endorsing him), and his victory has led to a huge increase in new DSA members.

    Tweet from Andrew Cuomo: Will the DSA last through November? I don’t think so.

They say Principles over politics. Silence over violence. Can they follow their own laws when their candidate waffles on every commitment? 

He’s flip-flopped on defund the police. Their position: Defund the police to 0. His: I’m not sure.

He’s flip-flopped on supporting LGBTQIA+ people. Their position: BDS human rights violators. His position: Own property and spend tourism dollars in Uganda, where they execute LGBTQIA+ people

The DSA’s coalition is crumbling under the weight of their own hypocrisy
