I've turned the corner and sort of appreciate DSA for what is is (a busybox for the most terminally online liberals ever invented) and not what I hoped it might be (a political vehicle for the working class). Not really concerned about it any more as it's none of my business, but sometimes they they bring coffee to a picket line or change some break lights between canvassing for Ossoffs, sexually abusing each other, and making themselves insane via byzantine drama involving robert's rules.

ultimately I think the DSA, if it ever really was a working class organization, was never strong enough to handle the influx of angry liberals it got because of Trump, and liberal strivers have taken over pretty much every chapter in which they're present in high enough concentrations. I don't know if there's any coming back from that as an org without a strong leadership structure.

the dsa is the Domain of Sexual Assault if you get my drift

great place for sex pests, perverts, hair sniffers and other slimebags to poach for their polycule rape houses

i support this. make the radlibs come out and describe in detail how they want to do spider networks leftishly, and let the membership decide which way to take it. at a much smaller scale, a similar approach worked great for my chapter just last night.

I think contemporary American left orgs should institute a No Social Media regiment for membership, akin to the abstention from drugs+alcohol of 20th century party members. It will probably fix a lot of people's brains

That account isn't actually affiliated with DSA, it's just another "Democratic Socialist" thing using a DSA logo. Probably some current or ex-DSA members who got frustrated, exactly as you're expressing, with the DSA's boosting Democrats.

Everyone I know in the Boston chapter is congenial, intelligent, and deeply passionate about the importance of their work. Of course they love to complain about the chapter but that's human nature. I'd give it a shot

There's little to no buy-in to join a local DSA chapter, might as well give it a shot and see if you like the work that's going on.

Falun Gong and the Epoch Times have put together a 30 minute video explaining how my chapter's fairly modest vacancy tax ballot initiative is going to lead to communism. lmao. it's a couple months old but i only saw it today. btw, this got about 15,000 signatures with only 9,000 needed to put it on the ballot.
