@benroyce @nomdeb @georgetakei there isnt much real choice in American elections, it's either corporate-lobbied Democrats or corporate-lobbied Republicans. Tho, people like #Mamdani give hope.

Palestine Action “not close” to terror group, Scottish board found
A #Scottish counter-terrorism board found that #PalestineAction’s activities fell below the threshold to be considered #terrorism before the group were banned by #Labour, The National can reveal.
It appears that #Police #Scotland concluded the group’s activity was well below the terrorism threshold.

I take your point about the tools of organising, and in principle I wish any project of the left success, but the predicaments we face cannot be faced effectively through representative democracy as it stands alone.
IMO, even if it could be achieved, ‘winning’ in the conventional parliamentary sense is not going to be enough. We need to go much further in terms of consensus building.
Projects like https://www.houseofthepeople.uk at least recognise this
@urlyman @Lassielmr @patrickhadfield @ChrisMayLA6 you need to move to #proportionalrepresentation first of all
