Edwin I wish you wouldn't write quite this way to this list, even though I
agree with your point in principle.
I know I may have set a bad example in some of my messages to Yar but the
wording and theme of your message really doesn't seem appropriate. Please
help keep this list non-gross.
Also Yar has already acknowledged in another email that PP is not a good
fit for us (literally an employee of PressTV)

Hey Yar, I don't think "passing the baton to
them (people's programs) is a
wise idea. Getting a good vibe when looking into someone's eyes at an
event may work sometimes when deciding if we should sleep with them, but
there is a lot more at stake here and any future partners need to be
thoroughly vetted. Agree? Keep looking. Thanks.

This was
an explicit death wish and nonconsensual photography
Why would you expect the victim to come forward for mediation?
She already has, and we are working to resolve this conflict. There is no
death wish. The main issues here are fears and tensions among local black,
iranian and palestinian communities, and I believe justice can be arrived
at with patience and understanding.
they will put it toward a charitable purpose,
such as low-income housing
So you'd rather see the building knocked down, than share it with PP? Are
we that petty??
PP made a great proposal with significant overtures and concessions to
us. It's legally very open-ended. This is an opportunity for Jesse to write
a counter-proposal/MOU with fine print giving protections & guarantees to
us and the building, while still honoring everything they explicitly asked
for.
I strongly disagree with some of PP's politics, but unlike CLP, these are
honest people grounded in community with long-standing local ties. They
live here, use their real names, don't hide behind anonymous protonmails or
sock puppets. Unlike CLP, they have a genuine desire to use restorative
justice to resolve petty disputes, rather than just use politics as an
excuse to treat people like shit. Unlike CLP, our differences can be
resolved with time and good faith.
CLP are assholes, and CLP definitely wanted to bring in PP for
ideological reasons. PP also took the CLP lies at face value, boosted them,
and came in hot on us. This was bad judgement, but doesn't mean conspiracy.
Frankly I don't blame them for assuming their comrades' post was true, and
if it was, then we'd have deserved it.
Of all the options I've seen so far, PP is by far the best. They're not
perfect, but nobody is. When I look into folks' eyes at their People's
Breakfast program, I see a large community of wonderful radical folks who
are ready to do hard work and take ownership of something big. I see us 10
years ago. I would feel good passing the baton to them.
