My Superman Vol 7 #27 cover is out today! ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

Democrats: We’re better than this! [votes for someone better than this] Democrats: whoa whoa whoa not like that

Viral videos and podcasts did not help a socialist win over a third of Staten Island. Be fucking serious lmao. Thanks to Zohran Mamdani, establishment Dems woke up to a jarring new political reality this morning: If you care about things people will vote for you. www.garbageday.email/p/if-you-re-...

Careful guys, if you don’t control migration you might turn out like <checks notes> the greatest, wealthiest city in the world.

Running on a pro-lgbtq, anti-genocide platform is a winning strategy and don't ever let them try to tell you otherwise ever again

Responses to the NYC result along the lines of "oh in country x, a establishment mutant would win," are entirely missing the point: the establishment mutant was unexpectedly defeated here. They can be everywhere if your game is good enough, and the game here was very good. It's time. Fight. Win.

If you're a member of the Democratic gerontocracy, the chances of you catching a primary challenger just went up 1000%.

Zohran Mamdani is the only democrat in the mayoral race that released an LGBTQ platform and the only democrat in the country (that I know of) to commit to safeguarding gender affirming care for youth + adults with $$.

It all depends on how you define "America." Personally, I cannot give less of a shit about "the country" or even its institutions for their own sake. I care about the people. When so much of "America" is imaginary, it's the real people who matter.

Socialism, tonight, defeated barbarism. After the two-decade midnight of 9/11, dawn is breaking.

For months now we have been hearing Democratic pundits say, "Democrats need to meet voters where they are." Tonight, New York City voters seem to be telling them pretty clearly.

I've been banging this drum for years now, I know, but Zohran's Big Night is a clear illustration of the power of giving people a vision of the future that boldly contradicts the rhetoric of Republican fearmongers. Not just "disagrees on policies," but actively paints a different image of the world.

It is crazy that the democratic party STILL doesn't understand this, but its not unsurprising since we know how deep most of the higher ups are in the pockets of the rich.

Right now Andrew Cuomo is at home crying like a little girl!

A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa. It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;) It's so New York.

New from 404 Media: 'FuckLAPD.com' is a website that lets anyone use facial recognition to instantly identify cops. Point camera, take photo, upload to site. It provides their name and salary information. Creator also rebooting their tool for identifying ICE employees www.404media.co/fucklapd-com...

Zohran Mamdani is up 8 points with 70% of the vote counted in round 1. The many vs the money The desi vs the dynasty The guy who respects women vs the guy who sexually abuses them We’re watching history in the making.

hey Democrats would love to see you put the same energy into undermining Trump as you did undermining Mamdani over the last few months

"Kitchen table issues" Whose kitchen table, exactly?

Mamdani’s platform on transgender rights is stellar. I’m pleased to see him ahead in the polls today. A victory would be profoundly meaningful for where progressives move from here, in a time where monied interests are trying to urge a rightward movement in the Democratic Party.

1. Stonewall National Monument took down trans flags and progress pride flags, opting only to fly the rainbow pride flag. It erases the trans people who led the Stonewall uprising. Thankfully, New Yorkers have been bringing their own and planting them. Subscribe to support our journalism.

look at what democrats have mustered against zohran mamdani vs. what they've mustered against trump. they've decided who their enemy is and it's the democratic majority.

I tend to agree that ranked choice voting is widely preferable to our (general) current system in the US, but I think it's important to note every electoral system has quirks and vulnerabilities and ranked choice doesn't mean bad/incompetent/just plain evil folks can't still win elections/majorities

This came up in my reels a few days ago & I haven't been able to stop thinking about it
