People on here who are poo-pooing Booker underestimate the power of storytelling in politics.

honestly, plaintively begging people to think about power when they think about politics

politics is not about being right, it's not about justice - that's what *our* politics is about, but politics as such is about who has power, and how much. if we don't have power, things we want will not happen

Remember: Wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging our markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of billionaires.

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

Art is politics. Art scares authoritarians. Art has power.

Power in politics is, as much as anything, the perception of power.

And as malevolent as they may be, these incompetent fools in the White House have come out of the gate looking very, very weak.

Curbing the power of billionaires to influence politics is a vote winner. It’s also free. Why won’t Labour commit?

"this is not about politics. this is about power."

what the fuck do you think politics is if it is not about power?

James Talarico: Just as much as people are tired of corrupt politics, they're also tired of corrupt religion—religious leaders who use their influence to accumulate more wealth and power for themselves.

Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics.

Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

the point of politics is not to be cool, it's to build collective power, and yes, organizational/associational power is real power

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.
