The sanctioned action is to CHUG

Couple updates from SF

We shut down the California Public Utilities Commission yesterday as a part of our continuing campaign against PG&E, the states for-profit electrical power monopoly. PG&E's half assed approach to maintenence and safety led to another round of deadly fires, and the state is looking to bail them out by allowing them to raise rates on all of us to pay for lawsuits. We're trying to push them to nationalize it instead of continuing to protect it's profits. This is really starting gain steam, we've got 5 or 6 local groups joining a coalition with us and we were able to put this action together with a few days of organizing. Even media is starting to come around, this report really makes the commission look like dicks.

Then later in the day we held our kickoff for the SF Public Bank Coalition, an effort to create a publicly owned municipal bank to challenge the dominance of Wall Street banks in public financing and support investment in affordable housing, student loans, local infrastructure, and everything else that normal banks ignore because it's not maximally profitable. It's an independent coalition, but it was founded by DSA SF members and most of the leadership is in DSA. More than 250 people showed up!

It’s incredible that so many are cavalier about spying on their comrades and publicizing private communications without their consent; most socialist orgs would recognize this kind of behavior as a form of wrecking and bring the hammer down hard on it.

extremely mad that momentum is trying to determine the allocation of scarce resources and call it ""politics"". we all know that real politics means never logging off, doing sex crimes and defending your friends, which is how praxis and refoundation did things.

sanders is the only reason 99% of people are in DSA so all of this drama is absolutely pointless

but this new strategy for 2020 (and beyond!) of just saying "oh wow :( y'all, this sucks" over and over seems like it's going places

We must go all-in on Bernie, a sublime suicide, shearing away the non-electoral deadweight and winning the presidency for a social democrat. Harrington's dream fulfilled! The price? The dissolution of this sweet late org so that its children live

Crusader

my hopefully only take on the whole momentum and bernie thing: if sanders runs, great, but even solely electoral work is more than just the presidential race, so it would be great for those so motivated to work at congressional and local levels as well. and if there’s a new wave of people flowing into dsa from another sanders run, that is great too, but i am assuming said people will want to do more than all their direct all their energy on a sanders run, so having a chapter and presumably national org that has viable avenues for participation along labor, healthcare, housing, feminist, immigration, climate, etc. lines to build a socialist future outside of what a president sanders could ever accomplish even in an ideal term seems just as important to me

this is a long-winded way of saying that schlesinger's article spoke of the dsa that i recognize, and enjoy spending time in/on; hell, i had a local dsa meeting last night that had cool reportbacks concerning support work people had done to support the migrant exodus, discussion about new directions for ongoing campaigns, and input from brand new dsa members - that’s the sort of thing that makes me want to keep doing this and think we have a fighting chance

If you're interested, he's got a good take on this whole thing:

https://twitter.com/AS47381154/status/1085025922263203841

But according to some, DSA is just so strapped for resources and time that it has to concentrate them into one campaign to the detriment of others and it's totally normal to plan for doing this, so it's impossible to say whether this is good or bad.

The whole Momentum idea that m4a will somehow lead to socialism isn't particularly persuasive in light of its failure to do so anywhere else in the world. How a healthcare platform to the right of Theresa May is supposed to leave the masses to revolution is somewhat left unsaid
