Anyone that says a twitch streamer is their #1 priority, and not going after the fascist Trump administration that holds all the real power and is enacting policies that negatively impact everyone, should not be part of an "opposition" party. They won't give the working class an inch.

Headline: Moderates have one goal: Make Hasan Piker a 2028 liability

the extraction class (and the brunchlord trust fund editors they seed at outlets like The Atlantic) are positively desperate to redirect attention away from the popularity and real-world potential of progressive reform

Atlantic headline: "The Hasan Piker Question"

If you're wondering what the actual crux of the article is, it's this. "The administration regularly sends the influencers memos on the mayor’s priorities" The mayor sends out press releases... That's it. That's where taxpayer money is going supposedly. On writing press releases. How terrible.

It takes you 20 paragraphs to get to the part of the article where they admit that Mamdani isn't paying the influencers and the reason they are posting videos of the stuff Mamdani is doing is because people are interested in watching it.

The mayor’s office says that it does not pay the influencers. Still, their proximity and access to a figure as popular as Mr. Mamdani can help increase their own social media following and, by extension, potentially put them in a position to attract paid content sponsorships from commercial brands. Some influencers said that when they feature Mr. Mamdani, the videos get more likes and viewers watch longer.

"Mr. Mamdani is a master of new media... But as mayor, he has also been able to use taxpayer funds to create a sprawling network of hundreds of friendly influencers to boost his priorities, provide positive depictions of his administration and enhance his popularity."

Welcome to the longest most expensive fireworks show in the country, the illegal fireworks of Los Angeles! It started 2-3 days ago, and tonight is the grand finale. It will be like this for hours.

RIP Bobby Prince. His music legacy will live on, making inspired music for Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM, countless others. A true legend. And such a nice man, great musician, wonderful, fun-loving man, nothing but happy memories of him. A loss to the world.

I read the “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Most of the media apparently *hasn’t* read it because, if they had, they would be sounding the alarm about the provision in Point 1, below, which almost none of them have even mentioned. I hope this summary helps raise awareness. 1/
