there are some people who do lots of legitimate and good organizing but also want DSA to be Antifa: The Organization a 501(c)(3), which is is not now and should not be in the future.

Isn't have the point of antifa being not really an organisation at all? So it can't be annihilated by the authorities at the first opportunity?

It's funny that every experience I have on a personal level with staff has been a positive experience and I have a really good working relationship with my regional organizer, but it really does feel that the structure as it exists continually results in pratfalls and missteps. I wish there was more serious talk right now about what kind of positive changes could be made without simply dragging folks for not living up to expectations. Unfortunately most of my experiences with national working groups or caucuses has been poor and unproductive so I've just focused locally and its been chugging along towards us having a formalized state structure, though since there's just two chapters and some YDSA chapters in OK, that's a smaller lift, but hopefully we can work out some models on that smaller scale and see if it can be brought at convention for possible reform.

Austin counter protest was a success, the speakers all had to scream into their PA system how they were "totally not fascist" while standing next to white nationalists. They packed poo poo in an hour after taking the stage and roasted in the sun.

i got invited into a Jewish solidarity group in NYC DSA and we talk about stuff in a Discord channel. somehow they know i post on SA and someone mentioned that a long post history here is a "red flag". they're seemingly more left-wing than DSA here at large and they should be suspicious of new members, but i have no idea why being a goon is bad

A flag for being a good poster and having good politics? Remember that nazis think we invented online social justice ala some modern-day elders of zion.

I think being a Goon is a huge Red Flag just, like, in general.

get that OUT of my face posted:that explains it. i guess the only acceptable way to joke online is to make semi-ironic, unfunny memes about socialism I mean you can just ignore those people or laugh at them, they don't really exist much offline, theyre mostly like that bc they're trying to leverage it into social standing/climbing or self promotion or whatever or they're psychotic narcissists.

There's very few actual alt right clowns on this forum. Even the horrible FYAD forum is probably more leftist than most people on Twitter or whatever So those guys are retarded is what I'm saying

I've recently learned that goons are apparently responsible for basically every bad thing that has happened in the world in the last 10 years so yeah I'd be wary of us too.

But seriously, it's mostly FYAD, Helldump, and forum invasions in general. That kind of thing is looked at pretty dimly nowadays with words like 'harassment campaign'. That and being the only one of two places left on the internet that actually cares about furries, and the other is a literal Nazi haven.

why dont they just break the big boston chapter up into a bunch of smaller chapters so they can have more robust debate and discussion, then have the elected chapter leadership coordinate and collaborate through a citywide leadership structure? this is how most every other socialist org operates in large metropolitan areas. like the fact that there are so many people that 99% of them cant voice their views is a problem, but if youve spent anytime in radical circles you also know that prolonged discussion over controversial decisions can paralyze actual decision making and action taking.

I've heard people talk about that, I could maybe support it. I guess no one has felt strongly enough about it to actually go through the planning stages of how to do it. If we end up incorporating as a statewide organization, I think it would be more likely to happen.
