Concerned Citizen posted:3. although getting into gated apartments is difficult, i would point out that finding a way into those is likely imperative for a group like dsa. apartment renters are more likely mobile and young, and probably more likely to be sympathetic with dsa's goals. the easiest neighborhoods to canvass - homes & outside-facing condos, especially suburban ones - are also more likely to be wealthier homeowners. if your group has purchased a voter file with some phone data, and you encounter a door locked with a keypad, don't be afraid to just guess. the worst thing that can happen is you get in and then get kicked out after hitting a few doors. look for faded numbers on the keypad, or if it's new try using the last 4 digits of people's phone numbers as codes followed by a pound. many landlords are lazy and use that by default. In case anyone missed it I would just like to highlight this really good urban-exploration tip provided by Concerned Citizen

SKULL.GIF posted:thanks for the writeup. #3 seems sketchy. #4 seems important, combined with #1. you should send this stuff to the dsa. actually you should join the dsa. #3 is sketchy but unfortunately, trespassing (which carries no penalties if you cause no damage & leave when asked without causing commotion) is a necessary evil for effective organizing work. one of the most important movements impeding the mobilization of people has been the gradual elimination or closing of public (as in shared, not as in government-owned) spaces to political engagement. in the past, one could, for example, register voters at a sidewalk outside of a large retail store. in many places though, people will simply drive from their apartment to a big box retail store that restricts activity to a road with no sidewalk. at some point, you follow the principle of "ask for forgiveness, not permission" as the most important groups to mobilize are simply the hardest to reach. ultimately you should never ask your volunteers to do somethign they aren't comfortable with, so reserve those doors to your boldest people. also fun fact, in mass you actually have the right to gather signatures to get on the ballot on private property, as your free speech rights are seen to outweigh the rights of the private property owners. also unfortunately i will not join the dsa as these days i can no longer financially afford to do this sort of work for free.

if bernie or someone like him wins the nom a number of bad dems are gonna abandon the democrats and say everyone has to vote third party like when the bad french socialists jumped ship to macron when hamon won or the blairites told people to vote lib dem in the british election. the bad dems all abandoning the party and joining the republicans or a rump third party is inevitable anyway though.

Yeah I'm afraid that if Bernie or someone leftist gets the nom its going to be a threeway between him, Zuck/Bloomberg and Trump. The dems split the vote and Trump gets in with a vote by the House

I wonder how many of the worst bad dems were Bush voters if you scratch even a little bit. IIRC Kurt Eichenwald voted Bush twice and still peddles green party dolchtoss bullshit. But yeah, I sincerely worry if the left of the party actually won it would end up with a split that would grab a lot of the shittier suburban dems with them.
