European Council representation after Spain's election *🇩🇰 - social fascist **🇲🇹 - third-way neoliberal; a corporate tax haven masquerading as an island At what point will rightoids stop blaming the left for all of society's problems? Probably never, but one can yearn

I’m obsessed with the idea of a country “falling” as a result of an incumbent winning re-election
Are we really going to let Brazil fall?

The discourse is so tired. Neither supporters nor opponents of such decisions ever address the necessity of land use reform in the anglosphere from single-use discretionary (re)zoning toward broad, binding land use plans (~Bebauungsplan)…
This has been a real eye opener for me in terms of what a lot of ppl think socialism is vs what it actually is bc I thought this was a positive outcome before I even learned there’s literally already a Lidl in Bath

…which leaves both sides arguing over the merits of adding another discount grocer to this town, rather than forming arguments on the issue at hand: the lot’s suitability for urban development.

I don’t care if Lidl wants another store in Bath. Bath shouldn’t even have a say. There should be plenty of land embedded within existing neighborhoods where more Lidl stores (or those of any other competitor, or development of other uses) are simply allowed by-right.

Every last boomer homeowner in America is both furious about their rising property tax and prepared to sacrifice their first born child to ensure their property value rises ad infinitum Suggest this logic is incongruent and they immediately activate the NextDoor hunting squads

“End Euclidean zoning” has simply got to be added to DSA’s platform at some point

Hot take: not a fan of rural, liberal SW England NIMBYism, but this is perfectly fine. There is no reason for greenfield development on the outskirts of our oversized cities. It’s literally in a floodplain. It’s auto-oriented highway exit chain slop. There’s no housing involved.

Bath (and everywhere) should still drastically liberalize land use on developed lots. But this is fine.

Pro-Senate… Nithya really has her pulse on the issues Angelenos and all Californians care about, namely perpetual disenfranchisement from the chief governing body of their country
Is L.A. mayoral candidate Nithya Raman a capitalist? "I'm a capitalist and I'm also a Democratic Socialist...we need to make sure capitalism works without harm to workers... to poor people." She says the DSA is a "big tent" but she disagrees with members who call to abolish police, prisons and the Senate. Interview via @InsidePolitics on @CNN

Two different polls for different far-right media groups; both are manipulation & you are falling for it The poll still shows 46-21 (not 70-30) with most centrist voters abstaining But when faced with a choice between LFI and RN, they do not actually abstain and most choose LFI
For the vitriolic quotes and replies: this was the runoff poll in September.

DSA needs to field cadre candidates for every congressional district, senate seat, and state legislative seat nationwide in 2028 National, chapter, caucus leadership should coordinate on this instead of endlessly bickering about endorsing a capitalist for President

Paper candidates are fine! But there must be a universal socialist option to establish our legitimacy, gauge our support, and emphasize our intent to govern

Elabe’s late October poll last cycle… For the most part, they weren’t wrong because the electorate substantially changed, they were wrong because they were lying.
France, Elabe poll: Scenario: Philippe (HOR-RE) and Villepin (LFH-*) run Presidential election Le Pen (RN-PfE): 32.5% Philippe (HOR-RE): 16.5% Glucksmann (PS/PP-S&D): 15.5% Mélenchon (LFI-LEFT): 15% Retailleau (LR-EPP): 7% Zemmour (REC-ESN): 3.5% Tondelier (LÉ-Greens/EFA): 3% Dupont-Aignan (DLF→ECR): 2.5% de Villepin (*): 2% Roussel (PCF-LEFT): 1.5% Arthaud (*): 1% Fieldwork: 14-16 October 2026 Sample size: 1,701 ➤ europeelects.eu/france
