Ah ben manifs anti-CPE à la grande ville (=Lyon) et courir en tenant son pantalon baggy quand la police arrivait
Et vous, vous faisiez quoi à 16 ans? Des "bêtises" soraliennes ou des activités moins profondément anti-sociales?
Moi, à 16 ans, je montais une équipe de football américain pour aller éclater les nazis de l'équipe de rugby du coin sur le terrain du quartier. Je (re)lisais pas Soral.

Bon on s'est fait aplatir mais on était fiers

At @inthesetimes.com, we've been following how tenant unions are adapting strategies from organized labor.

Here's a fascinating story about the flipside: a corporate landlord taking a page from anti-union employers, even hiring a "union avoidance" firm. (1/8)

As Tenants Organize, Landlords Embrace Old-School Union-Busting
Tenant union members say they’ve faced threats, surveillance and retaliation from their private equity landlord, which has retained a notorious “union avoidance” firm.

Jeffries didn't just forget to endorse Zohran Mamdani he chose to sit out while anti Muslim and anti tenant rhetoric was raging. That isn't leadership. Our communities deserve electeds who show up early and boldly for renters and immigrants, not corporations.

New It Could Happen Here

@miawong.bsky.social talks with @taraghuveer.bsky.social, director of the Tenant Union Federation, about how tenant and labor unions pulled together to begin organizing a rent strike to protect tenants and combat ICE.

California already has the strongest tenant protections in the country, thanks in part to YIMBY lobbying. Every YIMBY production bill includes strong anti displacement provisions. This has not gotten tenant advocates on board with YIMBYism because they do not believe that markets can help poor ppl.

Goddamn right. Fighting Anti-Blackness is a core tenant of disability rights and justice.

Zoning reform measures have divided tenant advocates in New York. Yet loosening the city’s anti-housing regime is essential if we ever want to build social housing at scale.

You cannot say you support free speech and anti-trans laws.

Being trans is free speech.

Denying people the ability to identify how they wish and have autonomy over their own bodies is a core tenant of freedom.

Leftist 27 year old tenant organizers when they see their suburban homeowner parents at the anti-YIMBY rally.

But Republican city council members in rabidly anti-tenant jurisdictions were straight up telling the press that they intended to do this! www.politico.com/newsletters/...
Republicans ... for rent control?

Labor organizing work, work around anti trans legislation, tenant organizing etc

Wild that anti-housing homeowners often find allies among tenant groups in opposing reforms to restrictive zoning
NIMBYism -> Restrictive zoning and land use regimes -> Rental deserts -> Racial and economic segregation
Useful new paper from @airbrycki.bsky.social et al examining the location of "rental deserts" throughout the country—areas with a low share of rental housing.

Their work shows that the existence of these "deserts" increases segregation. Restrictive land use policies are associated w rental deserts.

Not even Mike Harris was this anti-tenant.

nelson's anti-tenant shenanigans are a losing proposition
Inbox: The items that should have gotten votes in yesterday's housing committee -- including 14 appointments to the city's renter's commission that Cathy Moore urged her former colleagues to delay -- will now get them in the full Seattle City Council meeting.

The core tenant of GC ideology is "That thing I don't like, that's because of trannies."

Thing could be the crudest essentialism or high faluting postmodern, anti-essentialist, academic philosophy. The important part is they don't like it and it's our fault for existing.
These are people who simultaneously believe all trans people go around believing in "lady brains" and "gendered souls" and that Butler is foundational to the shared ideology we supposedly have. Expecting them to spot when we've failed to understand Butler's academic work would be a big ask.

Imagine if big lefty content creators spent even half their resources speaking with grassroots working-class organizers, tenant unions, and anti-war activists instead of wondering why the oldest capitalist political party in the US sucks.

It also expands anti-deconversion and demolition regs and institutes tenant opportunity to purchase
