I'm voting for his opponent but I still think that's bullshit. omg more orlando DSA goons anyway I wonder what happened, I saw the drama after it happened on FB but wondered why.

You know guys we can totally consume the Democrats. It will take time but its possible. We have to start from the bottom, get socialists and progressives elected at the bottom level everywhere. Primary some fuckers everywhere. Contest everywhere.

Doorknob Slobber posted:we don't, we just ignore them. A lot of them won't ever be swayed from doing the bare minimum of effort. Thats why its important to take over the Ds, those complacent liberal cowards will just keep voting D until the day they die. The DSA worries me in one regard. They claim, at least at my chapter, to not be a political party. Some have taken this to mean a rejection of entryism or direct action. I suggested organizing ourselves to go vote in members of our chapter into local positions. I was met with the mantra "we are not a political party" What then is to be done? No change will occur unless we truly organize and mobilize.

if we dilute our beliefs and ideas to cater to people who can just as easily be converted to believe in the holy doctrine of Marx then why dilute it in the first place. Here's your quick reminder that we cannot convert liberals or centrists without them already being disillusioned with liberalism or centrism in the first place. We are never gonna convert Sally Albright or whoever the gently caress whats next, we aren't gonna teach Marx or Lenin in the reading groups? Gonna drop anti-capitalism next? Yeah DSA are just socdems but compromising on your beliefs will just make you a poo poo dem in the end Like you're assuming people are stupid. We had our chapter's Political Officer teach the fundamentals of Marxism, including the basics and background of both Marxism and capitalism, in like 30 minutes in simple and easy terms. If you think people are stupid babies to be coddled not only will that dilute our message but turn people off harder than the strawman you build Phi230 has issued a correction as of 21:41 on Mar 15, 2017 |

Jack Gladney posted:The most recent DSA Facebook post is getting some lovely comments from men who don't want to read about feminism. I don't know that I have the rhetorical skills to right that ship, but it seems like a much worse problem than fighting over memes. If there are anti-feminists then they don't belong in a socialist organization and should be purged ASAP and there's nothing wrong with tankie memes they get the anti-fascist blood pumping

Business Gorillas posted:i mean you're obviously passionate about it, why not channel that anger about the right things not being done and take it upon yourself to start a marxist reading group? Because there already exists one, and its of an ok size relative to the chapter. And I tried proposing an idea to form an elections workgroup to figure out who to primary and where, maybe even have some of us run in local elections but was shouted down under the "we are not a party" mantra. I've tried reaching out on FB about attending protests but only a few people ever show up so I think actually organizing anything outside of meetings is a no-go. My DSA chapter seems to be a nexus of people who already are apart of other groups who simply do things that those other groups do rather than organizing anything with DSA affiliation.

Internet Explorer posted:Okay. In that case please reread the previous posts on the topic and then read your post. My DSA made a pretty admirable effort to recruit disillusioned dems, pretty great turnout. But guess what, after several months of not doing anything people lost interest. Not even social events. So this is what I mean, being careful and on eggshells just makes people bored. Not the ideology. In the end a DSA chapter is just a social group. Gotta do poo poo together to stay together.

Internet Explorer posted:And how does this tie into toning down the "comrade" and dank memes for public facing things like your DSA Twitter account / Facebook / website? Because nobody really is dumb enough to be turned off by joking use of comrade. Or socialist memes. They're jokes, people get it. You know maybe some people take it too far but it seems like complete nonsense to walk on eggshells for no reason. People are easily receptive to anti-capitalism if they're not sociopaths, you don't need to dance around it. I mean all it took was a 5 minute explanation of wage slavery w/ historical context and several people I know were then on board with the DSA during that meeting.
