"People here.. have no hard time understanding what a liberation struggle means.. its important for us to make the Palestinian struggle understood as a political struggle rather than a humanitarian crisis with no culprit. Its important to name the culprit at all times.."

Just did a live interview on France24 to talk about my book. When I said the word genocide, a producer told the TV anchor to say that “it hadn’t been juridically recognized.” Obviously I refuted him immediately and said we are not going to have this debate 3 years into this genocide. He was taken aback and could hardly finish asking the following question…

the largest socialist organization in American history, YOUR organization, has issued the order. Follow through, Zohran.
DSA
@DemSocialistsOct 11
Replying to @DemSocialists
We demand that Mayor Zohran Mamdani fire NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch and use every power available to him to drive ICE out of New York City. We further demand the mayor abolish the NYPD’s Strategic Response Group (SRG) and Community Response Team (CRT).
Statement continues: Socialist elected officials must lead this fight, not capitulate or waver in the face of political pressure or sacrifice the immigrant community for the sake of other reforms. DSA electeds must use their offices to confront institutions and use every lever under their control. They should not stand in opposition to those protesting to abolish ice but join their ranks as a leading figure, serving to mobilize working class people rather than retreat into political expediency while immigrant communities suffer the most. Our principles are not a set of aspirations to abandon when they become inconvenient; they are a mandate for action.

If someone were to say we must mourn members of the Nazi Party who lost their lives alongside the victims of the Holocaust they’d be rightfully derided. But for Palestinians, they cannot have a moment in which their lives are not tied to their colonizers, even in death.

Zohran Mamdani: “I believe there must be room to mourn every single life. There must be room to mourn the lives of the more than 1,100 Israelis that Hamas killed three years ago. There must be room to mourn the 74K Palestinians the Israeli government had killed since. What I so appreciated about being at the vigil yesterday evening, as I had been the year before, is that it was a vigil that brought together New Yorkers to read testimonies of their own family members, of others who’ve been killed either on the day or in the genocide since and ends with a shared vision for peace and for an end to the genocide”

You actually DO WANT left politicians to be scared of the movements that carried them into power. If you think your role as a citizen is to “protect” politicians, you’re not empowered. You’re weak. You like your delusional proximity to power.

You see a bunch of French zoomers shut down entire cities to protest cuts and then you come on here and see a bunch of Americans, who fancy themselves socialists, get their panties in a bunch because some protestors chanted at Zohran. Good lord.

“TRAITOR! TRAITOR! TRAITOR!” Hundreds of protesters chant at Zohran Mamdani as he attends an Israelis for peace (a normalizing project) October 7 vigil. The chants come amid mounting criticism from Palestinian organizers and supporters of Palestinian liberation over what they see as Mamdani’s retreat from his campaign commitments on Palestine, his political engagement with Zionist organizations, and the continued investment of NYC pension funds in companies tied to Israel’s military industry. For protesters, the confrontation reflects a growing divide between Mamdani’s campaign rhetoric on Palestine and the actions they expect from his administration. Video via @WOLPalestine @Cuny4P Protest mainly organized by various SJP chapters across the city @ccnysjp @NYUSJP and many others. Attended by @YDSA_ chapter including campus YDSA chapters.

The kuffiyeh’s presence is not accidental. Palestine has become the righteous cause of all anti-imperialists. Truly, Palestine will liberate the world.

Your definition of Zionism does not matter. Nor does mine. Zionism is defined by its material manifestations. The purpose of a system is what it does. And the Zionist system does racism and genocide. Simple. Please spare me the arrogant insufferable graaating Oxbridge debates. Your opinions are irrelevant. People are dying.

WAIT. Wait wait wait. You’re telling me. YOURE TELLING ME!! That people use to have segmented sleep where they went to bed around 9, woke up naturally around 2, enjoyed the fucking quiet and maybe did a small chore and then went back to sleep for a while. AND WE ARE ALL UPSET WE CANT DO ONE BLOCK OF SLEEP!! You know what… that’s it I’m crashing out.

Solid breakdown here. Though the Mamdani administration claims to reject conflation it draws antisemitism data from organizations (including the NYPD!) that have applied IHRA in collecting it. And it’s directing funds to organizations that themselves conflate Judaism and Zionism
James🔻@GoodVibePolitikOct 4
Zohran Mamdani’s recent plan to combat antisemitism has been met with notable criticism from the Palestine solidarity space. When you look under the hood at where most of the sourcing for data in the plan and the beneficiaries of it, it’s easy to see why. Very easy. 🔗 below.
