    #Socialist Momentum Grows as #MelatKiros Wins in Denver
    A #DemocraticSocialist who lost her job for speaking out about #Gaza unseated a 29-year incumbent.

    "#Leftists toppled a three-decade incumbent they’d made the face of the Democratic Party’s failures on Tuesday in Denver amid an #AntiEstablishment wave that has powered #progressive and #socialist midterm victories across the country.

    "Voters chose democratic socialist Melat Kiros, an attorney who lost her job for condemning her industry’s silence on Israel’s genocide in Gaza, ahead of longtime Rep. Diana DeGette, a Democrat representing Denver who touted progressive positions on domestic issues but drew criticism that she had grown complacent over three decades in Congress and generally followed the party line on support for Israel.

    "DeGette’s defeat in Colorado’s 1st Congressional District brought more bad news for Democratic incumbents reeling after losses in New York last week. Party leaders are facing a surge in public frustration with their brand and a cascade of voters who say they don’t wield power effectively. Though some Democratic leaders have discounted those races and claimed that the ascendant candidates’ vision is out of step with the party’s base, leftists and progressives are continuing to notch wins under their noses as they take the battle over the future of the Democratic Party to the polls.

    " 'In the last week, we have taken out 40 years of incumbency,' said #UsamahAndrabi, spokesperson for #JusticeDemocrats, which backed Kiros and two of the candidates who won in New York.

    "Members of the #DemocraticEstablishment 'hate that they can no longer simply spend unlimited sums of money to buy a seat in Congress, and we are truly proving that organized people power and mass movements can beat the money,' he said. 'We’re just having an amazing fucking cycle.'

    "Kiros, who will face Republican Christy Peterson in November, is heavily favored to win in the solid Democratic district."

  5. The reason I believe that many Gen Z men like Trump and Mamdani is because they are both anti-establishment politicians.

    Trump has been against the Republican establishment while Mamdani is against the Democrat establishment.

  7. "Following the release of the graphic novel and its 2005 film adaptation, this design came to represent broad protest, later also becoming a symbol for the online #hacktivist group '#Anonymous' after appearing in web forums, used in Project Chanology, the #Occupy movement, Anonymous for the Voiceless, and other #AntiEstablishment protests around the world. This has led to the mask also being known by the alternate name of the Anonymous mask.

    "The British comic book series #VForVendetta, which started in 1982, centers on a #vigilante's efforts to destroy an #authoritarian government in a #dystopian future United Kingdom. When developing the story, illustrator David Lloyd made a handwritten note on the intended #anarchist protagonist, V: 'Why don't we portray him as a resurrected Guy Fawkes, complete with one of those papier-mâché masks, in a cape and a conical hat? He'd look really bizarre and it would give #GuyFawkes the image he's deserved all these years. We shouldn't burn the chap every Nov. 5th but celebrate his attempt to blow up Parliament!' Writer Alan Moore commented that, due to Lloyd's idea, 'All of the various fragments in my head suddenly fell into place, united behind the single image of a Guy Fawkes mask.'

    "Moore also noted, 'how interesting it was that we should have taken up the image right at the point where it was apparently being purged from the annals of English iconography.' "

  11. Global Surge of #PopulistMovements 📈 In recent years, #populist #leaders and #movements have gained traction worldwide, fueled by economic inequality and political distrust.

    #AntiEstablishment Rhetoric 🪓 Populists often portray themselves as outsiders, positioning elites as corrupt and disconnected from ordinary citizens.

    The Future of #Populism 🔥 As economic, educational and social divides persist, populist narratives are likely to remain influential.

  13. The defining characteristics of modern #political discourse—deep #polarization, escalating interpersonal #conflicts, & the constant need to establish oneself as the #AntiEstablishment figure—were more or less inevitable because of the speed of #Internet #communication, the inherently adversarial & mostly #anonymous characteristics of #online chatter,& the #isolation that comes w/staring at a screen all day.

    前些天里,我们一直在与一些热衷直接民主的中国朋友交流思想。鉴于IYP此前呼吁中国的无政府主义同志加入直接民主的倡导工作,一些热心朋友建议了理论思想的资料和传播方式,并一起进行了讨论。由于这些资料都没有中文,于是我们现在正在做一些翻译工作。

    IYP关注局势的目的一如既往,旨在借助局势推动解放议程 —— 让局势服务于反抗战略。中国朋友对美国选举的热情远超过对其他国家,于是这是一个进行解放斗争倡导工作的良机。虽然建制派占据绝大多数的状况不难想象,但我们依然看到了新生代对变革旺盛的好奇心,这是希望所在。
    期待更多朋友加入倡导工作,或至少,保持信心和关注。

  19. @pvonhellermannn Thanks for sharing this article on #Varoufakis. He certainly has the knack for memorable lines. From this article, two strike me:
    - "you have these people taking over the #antiestablishment mantle in a way that is functional to the interests of the establishment.", perfectly said, take that #Trump, #Farage, #Brand!
    - "#KeirStarmer should try to do something he’s incapable of: being honest." 🤣 🤣 Ouch!

  20. 👇️ Innocuous memes — Online influencing tricks for fun and profit?

    ⚠️ It's supposed to be funny, but the false dichotomy created for this setup deliberately makes the IRS "the baddie to be done away with".

    For the dumber and angrier percentiles in a population, these kinds of cumulative suggestions matter when an angry maga-gop trumptard firebrand rails against the IRS as a "weapon of wokeness...". 🔥

    Remember those woke antichrists who plotted to take away your gawdly breakfast in the name of the D.C. swamp taxmen!!?? 🔥

    And they were trying to manipulate *polls* to force their evil ways!! We don't need no steenkin' fake elections!! This maga-gop trumptard guy will sort 'em out once in power!! 🔥

    Anyhoo... look at the options again and tell without which options the *society* can function for a year? For ten years...? 🤔

    Bonus points for the skull-avatared 'viral online pollster' for including the meat-as-god-given-right vs ... taxes as subcontext. You will get the meat entitlement confrontation in the replies to help widen divisions.

    PS. I don't know the poster, or creator if different, and have zero insight into whether this particular meme was purpose-made or just #serendipity. I am merely pointing out how things can work out with certain segment of viewership...
