DEAR PORTSIDE CULTURE READER,

TAKE A BREATH. WE EARNED THIS MOMENT. Yes, we – not just Portside,
but an extraordinary democratic coalition – earned the right to
breathe easier – for a moment. We mobilized and beat the historical
odds that usually give the out-of-power party a huge automatic
kick-the-bums-out victory in an off-year election.

Instead, this year enough people recognized the threat posed by the
out-of-power MAGA bums and the clerical-minded politicians in judicial
robes they’ve installed on the Supreme Court.

Women voted. Young people voted. Black people voted. A progressive
multiracial coalition mobilized. MAGA LOST.

BUT IT AIN’T OVER. The new “choice” offered by the MAGA party is
between a washed-up Mussolini wannabe, still driven by the mad dream
of being carried to power on the shoulders of a mob, and the DeSantis
experiment in semi-tropical semi-fascism. HELL NO TO BOTH.

WE HELP PEOPLE TO KNOW THE WORLD IN ORDER TO CHANGE IT. We provide
vital information about struggles, in our country and globally, to
achieve A RADICALLY MORE DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY THAT MOVES BEYOND
CAPITALISM. We moderators are happy to work without pay, but we still
need to keep our servers running, our software secure and up to date.
We need to reach out to more people. That all costs money.

Once a year we ask you to contribute to support this work.

WE’VE GOT SOME INTERESTING NEW PLANS FOR THE COMING YEAR – new
ways to use technology to empower the left community. To make the left
more connected, more organized, more united. That is the power that
can overcome billionaire politics, and a billionaire society.
 We’ll be unveiling those plans soon.
