Instead of joining the DSA, you should join the military, the tech industry, or else get a job working at an important piece of national infrastructure and then start making surreptitious trips to the nearest Confucius Institution.

Catch up buddy, the Confucius Institute was named (by congress) a foreign mission and universities were informed they could no longer receive various types of federal aid if they hosted a CI chapter. So most of them are disappearing

I have no idea why the DSA would ever allow bourgeois fucks in anyway unless they're just poseurs with no ideology or discipline. Which they are. Still, it would be like an organization advocating for the rights of chickens admitting a fox.

Since she is a dual-carder (joined DSA like 6 months ago) and we've been talking about her, may as well post it here: Sawant beat the recall. https://twitter.com/Taniel/status/1469089490681556992

mawarannahr posted:where do you get that idea? it’s not something I’ve ever heard. quote:Socialist Alternative has not taken up the approach taken by many on the left of adding immediate police abolition to our general political program. This is because, from the standpoint of Marxists, a political program should be a guide to action for the working class. We want to draw the widest possible section of society into the struggle against racial oppression and capitalism, and that means crafting a political program that people are willing to fight for. Broadly speaking, the demand to abolish the police has very limited support, including among the Black working class. Even at the height of the rebellion last summer, where popular support for the movement skyrocketed, the demand for police abolition only had 15% support. While the demands for sweeping police reform have much broader support, abolition leaves many wondering who would provide “public safety” in the absence of any police force.

Sawant believes in following a party line, which is way more than you can say for AOC or Bowman or any other "DSA" elected. Although it should be mentioned a ton of DSA people helped campaign both for Sawant and against her recall.

you’re right, I haven’t followed very closely. in light of how things have played out, do you think they might be right and that there are fish that are actually possible to fry when most people don’t support total abolition?

as a member of dsa but not salt, my opinion of the merits and demerits of salt's position on abolition is secondary to my point, relevant to DSA, that the desire to purge people, or factions, is frequently understandable but undesirable from the standpoint of a democratically organized, voluntary, mass political organization. it's a desire that leads things in a destructive and uncontrollable direction.

Either the ballets are cured, i.e. the voters in question fix the issue with their signature, or they are nullified I think. At least, that's how it works with the mayoral election. I assume that is how it works for other municipal elections
