Dashing? But I'm not even moving!


Imagined posted:

I went to a DSA meeting for the first time today and someone asked "So what is actually the goal or mission of DSA? To get people elected, or organize unions, or advocate for policy or what?"

And one of the organizers was just like, "Well, uh, that's a good question... That's one of the things we're trying to decide right now..."

Serious talk: the dsa is a highly devolved (haha) democracy, meaning the mission of a local chapter is what local members say it is, and the mission of the org is what delegates from all the chapters say it is at the national convention, coming up this year.

But at the high level, the goal is democratic socialism, ie the resources of any given community should be commanded by the democratic decisions of that community, not by whoever has the most money or can make the most money. In other words, socialism, but democratic (as compared to the autocratic or oligarchic bureaucracies that have tended to call themselves socialist governments).

e: a big distinction from some other communist organizations is that a democratic org with nearly-open membership will necessarily have members who disagree and openly argue about what the org should do, the same way as happens in a democratic country

Kapital volume one is all Marx. Volumes 2 and 3 were published posthumously by Engels based on the notes by Marx.

in addition to being warped caricatures of working people drawn with violence and hate by the wealthy, robots are also vehicles for all manner sinful behavior.

space communism will only be achieved through the development of unerring mental discipline and neurological amplification through the fearless use of key psychoactive substances
