The strategy call for Medicare For All was pretty good, we did a viewing party here in Tulsa. Always great to see Timothy Faust speak but a lot of the other folks giving their input were great too, especially Michael Lighty. I also really appreciated Amber's canvassing information, as it will directly go into our own local efforts. Looking forward to when DSA Philly's canvassing materials are put out there for folks, as Natalie Midiri said they are working on doing.

apropos to nothing posted:ideally there are police officers who would break ranks in the right circumstances and we dont want to alienate them or people who might be close to police as family or friends who would be alienated. Police who would break ranks in the right circumstances have probably already broken ranks and stopped being cops because the police are ALREADY largely engaged in active warfare against everyone who is not a police officer.

R. Guyovich posted:well there's little point in making active duty full fledged members right away for practical reasons: i.e. they would get kicked out immediately if it became public and if you're posted abroad then "organizing on duty" won't be any different from what you'd be doing anyway. if you're thousands of miles from the us then your organizing will consist of conversations with the people around you and it makes little difference whether you do that with a membership card or without one PSL and WWP both actively recruit active duty military

active duty soldier becomes radicalized 2 years into his contract, wants a group to talk to and be part of bc they are surrounded by reactionary dipshits and politically apathetic people in their unit. Sorry we don't accept you please go hang out with the crypto fascists white supremacists for four years then come back and you can join our club lol

having socialists on active duty is good as hell because soldiers are impressionable as hell (they signed up for the military) and once you get your inside person honed in theory and being able to explain it they can radicalize tons more

Yeah my only quarrel is with the O ranks and career NCO's, and even there's some good ones. Radicalize all the enlisted you can, though, they're great.

Owned bitch!!!!! yeah sorry your meaning ain't actually obvious to anyone but you because it turns out words have specific meanings especially in certain contexts also it's sometimes hard to decipher this "total purity first, completely disregarding any personal situations that aren't my own" bit you do even though i'm surrounded by people that assume the freshman year of their college education makes them experts so you think i'd be used to it

i'll be sure to turn in the direction of george patton's grave next time i dare make any troop-adjacent posts and the assumption that i hold the opinions i do as a "bit" or some kind of "purity test" shows just how seriously you view this whole socialism enterprise

If you pull the sneering leftist elite revolutionary thinker who is ideologically pure, try to at least use words with meaning. Because your only contribution, "revolutionary intellectual/ideas guy" loses its last merit when you don't even bother to use proper language and terminology.

Professor Bling posted:lol "i'm not doing purity tests you're just not as pure as me" it has nothing to do with "purity" and everything to do with an obvious unwillingness to engage with the consequences of the positions you take it is funny that people here will laugh at shithead democrats erroneously pulling the "purity test" line but immediately run to it the second someone is perceived to be criticizing their org/tendency of choice

How about - guillotine those that re-up enough times to count as career military, and double guillotine those that re-up after having a family because gently caress people who love their uniform more than their families.

we've already established psl and wwi will work with/recruit active duty military. dsa didn't even actively recruit this guy, he just joined. people supported him because he seems fairly legit, if not a bit niave. now he's going to be kicked out, and the org should support him imo. i don't see where the problem is.
