Michigan, let’s win this together.
A photo of President Barack Obama, Abdul El-Sayed, and Jocelyn Benson standing on stage together at a rally and holding hands. There is a jubilant crowd in the background waving signs and cheering. A sign in front reads: "Let's win this."

just horrible political acumen from Stevens. you might not like the precise elements of the victory you are anticipating to have - but standing clearly on the other side of it is just DAFT.

Michigan Republicans, funded by Musk and other billionaires, have no answers to the struggles facing working families. Instead they are resorting to Islamophobia and are running the most racist campaign in recent history. Together, let's defeat bigotry and elect Abdul El-Sayed.

'Is that a really good use of his time?' 'Raising money for a cancer charity?' The Green Party's @floschechter brands Andy Burnham going on Gogglebox as 'ridiculous'.

The thing is. And this was a major 🔑 for me several years ago, in thinking about the podcast, is that communists are obsessed with capitalism. Some of them are so obsessed that they might even secretly love it. Whereas capitalists rarely spend any time thinking about it.
