I'm pretty sure there are Florida DSA chapters in Miami and Orlando but I'm not either of those places so I have no idea if they have any presence here doesn't hurt to join up anyway I guess

no need for splinter groups, get in touch with them and see if you can supplement their shitposts with contentposts to actually get the audience they might already have organized and angry

oneforthevine posted:Is there any benefit to joining DSA if there isn't a local chapter near me? I'm in no position financially or network-wise to start one anytime soon. there's always a chance someone will start a chapter near you (they might be in OC talks RIGHT NOW!!) and you could get in on the ground floor as someone in the wretched sprawling wastes of tampa bay, this is my personal hope, though according to a few people in chat someone's trying

local chapters are extra focused on women and minority outreach right now because the popularity of the DSA online is mostly in white male circles so that's a lot of the new membership I imagine they're trying to head off the brocialist accusations early by getting involved in diverse organization

I think it's more "nobody will ever take us seriously if 90% of our intersectional socialist movement is white male yuppies", which I think is a legitimate concern

i noticed the comrade debate is exactly the same as the stupid one piece 'nakama' debate, so clearly the same solution applies here and you should call everyone bro (or the gender neutral variety homie) at every opportunity

the DSA site has a number of documents on organizing protips, and they're really good: http://www.dsausa.org/basic_resources which reminds me Tampa is finally getting an OC together so I should read some of this stuff to have any idea what I'm doing

Ottermotive Insanity posted:It really is a strange beast, the county Dems. The ones at the top insist they want change, and mostly do, but there are a dozen members who believe because they marched in 1988 about some bullshit that they know better. It'd be difficult to get a majority on the main dem committee, but there's enough likeminded and young people now that pushing the party out of atrophy isn't impossible. I went to a county Dem meeting the other day to scout it for socialism and 90% of the crowd there was strictly senior citizens, so I don't know how receptive they'd be to actual leftists (I also didn't ask, maybe next time). This is also in Florida, where olds go to die, so ymmv

iirc Bernie's foreign policy is "we shouldn't overthrow the governments of people we don't approve of and we shouldn't get involved in foreign wars" which is light years ahead of every other elected official

yes hi guy with trump avatar i believe the point of that post was "as long as the United States remains the imperial world leader of capitalism it will actively attempt to dismantle any left-leaning governments that try to form inside its sphere of influence, which covers at least half of the Earth" and not whatever nonsense you've concocted in your head

My local posed this question to national a while back; they won't directly share the contact details of local members, likely for privacy/security reasons, but you can ask them to put out a mass email that will be sent to DSA members in the area.

it is a bit weird to title your proposals "abolish the police and prisons" when none of the reforms themselves involve abolishing the police or prisons all the individual actions listed are good as hell but I'm confused about why they called it that
