And yet if socialists don’t support genocide we’re the ones letting fascism win
the only path to a real opposition party in this country is thru the destruction of the Democrat party
The Minnesota DFL vacated its endorsement of State Sen. Omar Fateh for Minneapolis mayor after a review panel found glaring flaws in the voting process.
A flurry of challenges were submitted to the state DFL in the wake of last month’s Minneapolis DFL Convention, pointing out issues with the electronic voting system and questioning whether a quorum was present for the final ballot that clinched Fateh’s endorsement over incumbent Jacob Frey.
The Minneapolis DFL also admitted it erroneously eliminated DeWayne Davis after the first round of voting due to an undercount of 176 votes.
I’m very suspicious the dem party be tampering with votes when they don’t like the results.
Gonan plug Fateh’s Bluesky because he must be doing something right if both the Dems and GOP hate him.
All the laws, all the procedural fuckery, all that shit can just be waived when its their guy.
It only exists to stop people from not sucking.
Who cares? Democracy is all about the people’s choice to be heard. He just needs to pull a Mamdani and win anyway. Socialists have to pry the party from the hands of the corporate assholes who run it one election at a time.
The fuck do elections have to do with democracy?
Kinda all of it? Considering “democracy” by definition is “a system of government where all eligible members of society vote in an election, either directly on legislation itself (direct democracy) or to appoint representatives to dictate legislation for the whole (representative democracy)”
“Democracy” is intrinsically tied to having elections.
No. Democracy is rule by the people, the demos. Might actually be ‘the mob’? Technically in the original greek its tyranny or violence of, i think (or it would be demoarchy) but i digress.
It’s perfectly possible for the people to rule collectively without centering elections, and, if you really wanted to telry, having any voting at all. It just requirws the ability yo imagine literally anything being better or just different and weirder than it currently is.
You’re tied to the concept of daddy doing things, of decisions being far from the people.
