dsa is extremely good and if you post in cspam but dont join your local chapter and get active in your community then you will be purged when the revolution comes. pm me or ask in this thread if you are in tx and need help finding connections or want to know who to get in touch with. im an organizer out of houston and will help with that. people are organizing all over the country and there are massive demonstrations happening all over the place. get involved there is actual productive work to be done right now. it's fun to lay a sick burn in cspam but it's much more fun to agitate in irl i promise. even a goon like you can go outside and change the world.

DSA is a welcoming organization that is glad to let even filthy dnc collaborator liberals attend their meetings with the hope that they see the light of socialism and dedicate themselves fully to destroying capitalism. don't be afraid to attend one, it really is a big tent.

organized an action sat night at bush intercontinental airport http://www.texasmonthly.com/the-daily-post/refugee-ban-affecting-texas/ quote:Organized in part by the Houston chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America and promoted on social media... tom perez showed up at the thing too quote:Monitoring the protest from one side of the immigration hall was a group of about ten officers from the Houston Police Department. A police representative said that the protest was technically illegal since no one had applied for a permit, but that they would allow it to continue as long as it didn’t get any larger or more disruptive. then we came back the next night and filled the terminal up.

my understanding is that you can start an organizational committee with 5 people just about anywhere but that you likely will be under the umbrella of your closest city chapter. you have your own meetings and plan your own work and everything though.

of course if you're within a reasonable distance of an established group it's probably better to join up with them than starting your own group.

Eustace posted:NC DSA member here. I'm working on getting a chapter organized in Asheville. Do any of y'all know what other socialist groups think of the DSA? I'm pretty new to the leftist circular firing squad, so I wanted to get a feel for what the other socialist groups in town are going to accused me of. collaboration with the democrats and trying to reform the bourgeois party. might even get called a liberal.

apropos to nothing posted:I'm a member of Socialist Alternative. The only "leftist circular firing squad" is over tactics; we all want to destroy capitalism. An example is DSA openly endorsed Sanders for president, SA "supported" him and told him to run as an independent but didn't endorse, and ISO said he's an imperialist social democrat. They all used Sanders to grow their base, just different approaches. We all still should work in solidarity with each other as much as possible though. I'm in the process of helping some organizers from DSA get a branch started up in my town now as well as helping some students at the local college get a YDSA branch up, even though I'm not a member. I'm not trying to block them or convert them, I'm giving them help and connections and going to their meetings. We're all comrades, even if our acronyms are different. everyone knows socialist alternative is only out to poach members from other orgs to press into service for the green party. you can tell this is true because the poster instinctively denied that's what they were doing even before i accused them of it.

Internet Explorer posted:Apparently I may be running into you at the CO DSA meeting on Thursday. Quick question, to show up to a meeting you have to be a dues paying member, correct? If so, I'd like to sort that out beforehand. you should pay your dues but meetings are open to everyone (including non members) and nobody checks that anyway

Agean90 posted:I moved here about six months ago and dont know noone, so im reserving that incase the local party is irredeemable. Figure if it is I can find other disaffected in the meeting and build of that. go to the local party meetings and try and get plugged into what other progressive groups exist around you. probably some environmental and the like orgs. maybe death penalty abolitionists. from there you can get your 5 to start an organizing committe, grow large enough to form a chapter, then run candidates in your local dem party, win offices, now you've started a movement and seized state power and the next stop is socialism for all.

yeah we're looking at organizing feeds for the homeless (which are illegal in houston), longterm goals of getting free tuition at local community colleges, and then we participate in a lot of other group actions with other single issue orgs. also do happy hours and potlucks, social stuff to keep people engaged and having a good time. all that stuff is important.

triple sulk posted:If I was a garbage piss idiot Clinton supporter, am I still "allowed" to get involved in this stuff or will I get berated if I don't pretend I was a diehard Sanders supporter honestly depends on if you're trying to poison the group with democrat centrism or not. the DSA is a socialist group and you don't have socialism under lovely democrat third wayism. if you want to build a broad based mass movement founded on both democracy and socialism you're totally welcome.

we do have social democrats in our group, don't want to make it sound like that doesn't exist. but the fundamental purpose of a socialist org is ending capitalism so don't be confused just because DSA is very popular right now

Can I sleep on your floor if I promise to punch one nazi for every hour of sleep you got it but i don't expect mroe than a couple fat bikers and maybe some redhats who will turn around when they see that we've literally got thousands of people there. so set your alarm early because i don't expect more than a few hours of sleep out there for you to earn.

bullying is an instinctive response to abberation among the tribe and must be embraced as a corrective tool against those who would poison the tribe with their annoying social defects. this is also why it is important to purge from your leftist org everyone to the political right of yourself
