What if we're describing them as white nationalists because they are white nationalists?
Tucker Carlson spews directly fascist beliefs--shit that is barely concealed Turner Diaries stuff--into the bloodstream of the American discourse on a nightly basis. Stephen Miller has a long history of affiliation with openly white nationalist organizations.
I think Matt's problem is that he agrees with significantly more of Tucker Carlson's beliefs that he'd like to admit publicly, and would prefer not to get tarred as a white nationalist himself.
Anyway, all of the people who are still apologizing for this piece of shit because he also thinks we should build apartment buildings should eat my ass 🥰

This is a very good piece by @pareene that I'm just getting to. newrepublic.com/article/162828…
I think that in some ways, the 2021 mayoral race was decided when Jessica Ramos chose to endorse Scott Stringer rather than stay out of it or run herself.
The early consolidation around Stringer kept other viable left-wing candidates out of the race, and for several reasons, he turned out to be a major dud.

I understand the desire for multiparty democracy, but particularly in a FPTP presidentialist electoral system, bipartisanism is basically the only stable equilibrium.
You see two-and-a-half party systems in countries with FPTP and parliamentary democracy, but even there it's got its own issues, where parties with an electorally efficient coalition regularly win near-dictatorial power with like ~38% of the vote.

God, this is some scab shit.

"Unions are great, but they just aren't the right fit for *our* organization."
For a bunch of people who claimed that they were the true revolutionary leftists and not like those dastardly PMC types, they've pivoted to nonprofit-managerial bullshit remarkably quickly.

I'm watching the NYC mayoral debate and boy, I did not realize Scott Stringer was this short.
Lol, Eric Adams lying about whether he sided with landlords.
"Small landlords should be able to gouge their tenants in the midst of an eviction crisis" yeah fuck you @ericadamsfornyc, we should liquidate your assets. You don't need them, you live in New Jersey.

This is the second election in a row where @NYWFP has basically sat out the election in Council District 40, and I really don't like that.
In 2017, they refused to endorse in the primary (when it would have actually helped), and then endorsed Cunningham only like a week before the general election. It was so close to the election, Cunningham's campaign had to put stickers on their existing lit.
Cunningham lost by less than 2,000 votes, and our useless incumbent council member barely cleared 40% of the vote. Clear guidance from WFP and some IEs might have toppled him. Image

I think Adams' potential success demonstrates that (a) Democratic primary voters are often not particularly ideological, (b) that the left made a tactical error in focusing so much fire on Yang, and (c) that descriptive representative remains very important.
These are not the only lessons to learn, but I think they are some of them!
Like, I would bet money that there are going to be a significant number of voters who voted for Phara Souffrant and Jabari Brisport in 2020 who also are going to rank Adams first.
