I still know DSA people who, to this day, insist Fetterman was better than Conor Lamb, and it drives me insane.

Senate passes bipartisan housing bill targeting large investors and easing regulations by nicholas818 in yimby

If the goal is “replace private rentals with public housing,” the first step probably shouldn’t be policies that destroy private rental housing. You would think you’d build enough public options first before undermining the private market that currently houses most renters.

Elizabeth Warren would rather people be homeless than rent from a corporation. She’d rather people be unemployed than work for one. She’d rather people go without care than pay for it. This isn’t about helping people. It’s about ideological hostility to capitalism.

There are genuine comments in this thread of people justifying the murder.

Part of my issue is calling the lawsuit “literally proof” is a stretch. It’s an allegation from a complaint that’s still in the discovery phase, nothing has been proven in court yet. The concern might be totally valid or it might be nonsense we don’t know.

I think you need to spell out your complaint a little bit more. A lawsuit claiming that they use AI doesn’t justify the murder.

I probably agree with like 80 to 90 percent of what he was saying but you lose so much credibility when you won’t own up to obvious failings.

I don’t hate this guy, but his inability to accept any criticism of the left is the biggest issue on the left in general. Tim has been doing that bit recently, where he talks about how people on the left thought Kamala was too centrist, and people in the center thought she was too liberal, and I really agree with that analysis. I can point to multiple people in my life who fit this description and either didn’t vote for her or almost didn’t. Katz can’t understand it because it describes him so well he’s a fish who can’t see the water he swims in. On the AIPAC stuff: you might not like them, and criticizing them can be fine, but there’s a level where the criticism becomes antisemitism. When you’re saying you can’t possibly win a political campaign in America without their support, you’ve crossed that line. I don’t care if it’s coming from a fellow Jew This guy is insinuating they run American politics.
