Philly DSA leaders just blocked a resolution to create a mutual aid committee that would serve the most vulnerable during a pandemic.
In case you needed another example as to why I have issues with these people.

.@andersonatlarge why are you using the oppressor’s tool of legality to defend your erasure and cooptation of a movement and hashtag that I coined?? .@BBworkers has been doing this work and it is utter violence to claim the work of Black and Brown Queer folx.
Why are you defensive about this? The article clearly stated that you created the hashtag. This is factually incorrect. Journalistic integrity rests upon the facts. None the less. You did not write this article. Our request for a correction stands for @ValerieRussDN

Reports from the local community in the Bronx and those on the scene suggest Kawaski was not a threat to anyone when NYPD arrived.
Instead, he was in his room, possibly in a state of emotional distress. His death was preventable

Today we made a surprise visit to the office of GPAR, the landlord lobbying group who funds Councilman @TeamDomb. Both fought against legislation to reduce unfair evictions. Our message: RENT CONTROL IS COMING. Will you make up for your displacement in this city and support it?
