All over the world, democratic socialism failed in the face of ascendant fascism as “socialists” allied with bourgeois republics. The many millions of dead call to us from beyond the grave to not repeat this mistake.

    In order to solve it you have to make the correct assessment first to decide if a solution is worth putting effort into.

    The DSA exists to bait in people who want to do something and turns their actions into wasted effort. That is what the author explains here

      time for me to ask the soft ball question that trips up everyone. what should we be doing?

      now that DSA is relevant all of the sudden its waste of time, worse than doing nothing, government psy-op, or whatever excuse people make up to not join the DSA. my answer is anything and everything including joining and helping a DSA chapter then write about what we have done for posterity and so others can figure out what best accomplishes what they need

          lol the green party? the same party that hasn’t done anything or said anything about trumps deportation policy or funding of Israel. half the time doesn’t even run candidates in off season elections. green party is more useless than DSA.

          i did help the PSL without knowing it and they don’t seem to run candidates.

          ngl that video is hilarious its just what if and complaining that dsa follows the policy that the people vote and their lack of vetting like an organization actually needs vetting, you do realize you can kick someone out later? its outdated because the DSA ran Mamdani and infiltrated the dems.

          also there’s a lot of organization that are involved in politics that don’t run candidates they lobby and get their legislation into effect. a lot of organizaiton do use money, but then theres organization that can organize canvassing group for candidates and vet them… like how the dsa vetted mamdani

            Did you do literally 1 second of research before making random stuff up?

              No I remembering something from months ago, green party has been as quiet as Kamala on all the awful things trump did.

              Plus green party has no real presence in Florida which kinda explains why I saw DSA at no kings day protest, but no green party.

              I could add psl since I inadvertently stood in solidarity with them

                You’re remembering pure propaganda because what you’re saying about Greens is a complete lie.

                In fact Jill Stein was one of the few even calling out Russia and China for voting in favor of the recent UNSC resolution rubber stamping the Israeli genocide of Gaza.

                  Lol so stien back in 2024 not 2025. God this is getting pathetic. Like I already listed pros both the DSA and even pls have and your here damage control green party.

                  Plus you’re getting aggressive. It’s like your expecting me to like something don’t interact with and can’t interact with more than something I can interact with

                    Sorry I can’t have an actual argument with your fictional reality where the DSA isn’t a DNC psyop but the Greens are somehow a Trump psyop. Apparently that’s “being aggressive”.
