i wasn't there, but i didn't see anyone say anything about that, but this was her second event of the night, she was at a $250/ticket minimum event earlier in which jovanka was a co-host, but so was jovanka's opponent.

makes sense aoc didnt want to wade into that fight then but it's a shame because ebdsa is working really hard for jovanka and she could really use all the help she can get against a former obama staffer

No Jovanka shoutout. I think she handled the interruption pretty well, talked a bit about her Puerto Rican background helping her understand what it's like to not have access to full civic personhood.

My favorite part was someone in the audience yelled "seize the means of production", she paused and said "pardon?" and the utter clown and coward did not repeat his statement

It's usually accusatory. Calling someone whatever-adjacent is accusing them of playing footsie with (usually) bigoted groups while trying to maintain plausible deniability.

Mostly I see -adjacent as yet another way to baselessly discount someone's opinion. If you're a queer black transwoman socialist, well, you're still cishetytbro-adjacent if you don't support Mother.

adjacent seems like a way to undermine and discredit any individual or organization that takes part in any kind of collaboration or cooperation with other groups during mass work which may have politics that arent 100% correct

I was more saying that the M4A people should have been aware your convention was happening too. The point is that if national would show some effort in thinking about these things and communicate promptly and honestly when people have criticism (or formal grievances) then there wouldn't be such bad blood
I'm also not really worried now since I forgot that we actually kept Cville in the loop about the RBC and early on asked Molly if she wanted to come up for to facilitate a workshop, but said she couldn't and obviously now there is a reason Cville can't really send a rep for RBC.

What it looks like is that we will probably send some monetary support via excess funds (if we have any) from fundraising or just ask for attendees to donate money for a bail fund.

It looks like another term that well-meaning but increasingly cranky leftists are going to be trying to defend despite that absolutely everyone was first exposed to it by the broke brained white libs trying to use it to silence leftist minorities and/or make everything in the world about them and their problems exclusively.
