You know, there's a particular line in a particular version of the Internationale that I really appreciate. "Justice Thunders Condemnation" I don't know, it just seems relevant right now. Ground has been taken. We're still really far from the world we want to see, but that's a fight that will take our entire lifetime and, maybe, even more. We do what we can now, we fight now, for the purpose that others will have a chance. There is a selflessness in the basic tenets of leftism, a real desire to toil and suffer while we solve what we can. We do that all so that others can solve problems greater than us. I know voting democrat can sometimes be a choice that tears us apart. But this? What we see today is a ground on which we can continue to take. We push the overton window as hard as we can. Progressives will continue to rise and win. All the while, the dem leaders themselves have no choice to put up a defense again the Republicans. They still attack us, but they have too many resources tied up to do it effectively. Also, they're... Not the brightest or most media minded of people. They are beatable. The biggest fucking moron of all time did it. Why can't we? Sometimes you have to think tactically and coldly about politics. We have a once in a generation opportunity to gain ground and, just maybe, take control of the party entirely down the road. Do not waste time. "Impossible" is the mantra of those who choose to give up. Stand and take up the fucking fight, in any way you can. Oh, and we'll win Florida next time. Sometimes you take a loss, it happens. Perhaps it's necessary to listen to those of Cuban descent there and find a way to address their concerns better. Either way, it's a done deal in '28. Mark my words. Keep your eyes open and do what you can. #leftism #leftist #uspol #Election

They 👏 don't 👏 need 👏 reparations 👏 any 👏 more. Slavery ended hundreds of years ago, want to address inequity in America? Then make sure black families aren't grouped together into ghettos and receive the same job and academic opportunities as anyone else.

Andrea Dworkin would have fought transgender ideology with every fiber of her being. The women who knew Andrea best have all come out and refuted all of John Stoltenberg's claims that Andrea Dworkin was a "trans ally." Andrea was sick at the end of her life and married a gay friend for the economic security and for health insurance. After her death, Stoltenberg tried to mischaracterize Andrea's position on transsexuals and defend her against the charge of “transphobia." Martin Duberman also wrote a biography of Andrea where he also distorted her views on transsexualism and falsely claimed that she “deplored” Janice Raymond’s analysis in "The Transsexual Empire." Nothing could be further from the truth. In reality, there is an endorsement by Andrea Dworkin on the front cover of Janice Raymond's book calling the work 'crucial reading." Phyllis Chesler writes, "It seems that both Duberman and Stoltenberg want to enlist Andrea’s ghost into supporting the contemporary transgender movement. To do so, they are using her work of 46 years ago to conflate Dworkin’s concept of a small, persecuted, and powerless minority of transsexual prostitutes in Europe with our contemporary, aggressive, well-funded transgender movement. For the purpose of this review, I contacted Jan Raymond—who told me that as she was writing The Transsexual Empire, that Andrea “read the manuscript in process and contributed an endorsement.” Andrea’s endorsement for The Transsexual Empire read as follows: Janice Raymond’s The Transsexual Empire is challenging, rigorous, and pioneering. Raymond scrutinizes the connections between science, morality, and gender. She asks the hard questions and her answers have an intellectual quality and ethical integrity so rare, so important, that the reader wants to think, to enter into a critical dialogue with the book. This does not sound like someone who “deplored” this work." https://archive.ph/eBB0K RESOURCES: RAYMOND SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT ON DWORKIN’S “TRANS-INCLUSIVITY” https://intenseworldtheory.com/raymond-sets-the-record-straight-on-dworkins-trans-inclusivity Archived https://archive.ph/X9QF8 PHYLLIS CHESLER WOKE ANDREA DWORKIN https://phyllis-chesler.com/articles/woke-andrea-dworkin Archived https://archive.ph/eBB0K https://www.newenglishreview.org/woke-andrea-dworkin Archived https://archive.ph/OXyLR Woke Andrea Dworkin Martin Duberman distorts the life and work of a pioneering feminist genius to make her more pleasing BY PHYLLIS CHESLER https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/arts-letters/articles/woke-andrea-dworkin Archived https://archive.ph/HvGck “The Worst Kind of Betrayal: What John Stoltenberg Did to Andrea Dworkin” By Nikki Craft February 28, 2016 https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02JUGCVzg3rpGz8JRojYRHGRqAMbUcT19YQV3tvhL5RZMd1drZp6zupc4gguqzZujNl&id=100089961806400&paipv=0&eav=AfYzRPdbWLcz4MHvTi4f6lwTpO7QZXptgFD6JmzdC-tVKwRumKFknKU2amgy3st26Eg&_rdr Archived https://archive.ph/h9nZz “Altering Andrea: How John Stoltenberg Performs Editorial Surgery on Dworkin’s Sexual Politics” By Nikki Craft March 7, 2016 Stoltenberg wanted to add a postscript to Andrea's work even though it was her expressed wish that none of her work be edited or modified in any way. https://www.facebook.com/100089961806400/posts/pfbid037YxrtrLYUqT7N8TCTa64UfuAWmXVMA7L4Umm2kfGaxdiRCesnAoDerfrAqw29rQQl Archived https://archive.ph/BrNtk Derrick Jensen Response to John Stoltenberg: Andrea Dworkin & Transphobia https://derrickjensen.org/2015/02/response-to-john-stoltenberg-andrea-dworkin-transphobia/ Archived https://archive.ph/RfWxr A NOTE FROM THE TURF WAR ZONE A RESPONSE TO JOHN STOLTENBERG https://www.theturfwarzone.com/anotefrom.html Archived https://archive.ph/gk1zr Transitioning but Not Transcending: Dispelling the Distortions of Andrea Dworkin’s Work https://www.thedistancemag.com/p/transitioning-but-not-transcending Archived https://archive.ph/mbcGR Andrea Dworkin supported Nikki Craft's book on John Money - the father of Transgender Ideology Nikki Craft: Stoltenberg is wrong about Andrea Dworkin https://wolfwomanofnorth.wordpress.com/2016/02/27/nikki-craft-stoltenberg-is-wrong-about-andrea-dworkin Archived https://archive.ph/lMsnG After her death John Stoltenberg lied about having sex with Andrea.

When liberals and progressives assert that we can't win if we are 'too far left' they are telling on themselves. What they are really saying is that *they* will permit the far right to win elections if the alternative is a candidate to the left of their comfort zone. If they actually cared about halting fascism, they'd be using their centrist credibility to help mitigate the fear of leftist policies to everyone else. #liberals #leftism #socialism #fascism
