This vibes anecdotally with my local chapter. In the face of overwhelming membership solidarity with Palestinian liberation, the social imperialist reactionaries are purging themselves.
buh-byeeeee
My revolution will end when I am put against the wall for being anti-revolutionary. This is good.
I started reading thinking this was someone that’s pro-Palestine upset about DSA being too pro-Israel. Pleasant surprise to see that it is instead just a succ-dem purging themself.
DSA is getting better? Weeks where decades are happening?
DSA’s National Political Committee did not agree with the two most prominent democratic socialists in American public life.
doesn’t really seem like a huge dunk on the DSA tbh
knowing Israel@will retaliate- do you get that they don’t give a FUCK about Palestinian lives???
damn silverman, what if the israeli military simply… didn’t retaliate? is it really solely on the prisoners inside the concentration camp to break the cycle of violence, even as that violent cycle is being continuously engineered by the guards?
Also, in any socialist organization worth its salt the direction should be coming from the ground up, not the organization acquiescing to a couple of high-profile nominally socialist figures.
nominally
That’s a word carrying a huge load for those liberals, if you’re talking about who I think you’re talking about
But they remained united in one overarching shared aim—to take a well-meaning, not particularly well-organized, and essentially social democratic organization still committed in practice to the original DSA vision of creating “the left wing of the possible,” and reinvent it as the mass vanguard party of the proletariat that somehow they had never been able to pull off while operating under their own banners of deepest red.
Founding member of popular socialist group doesn’t know definition of socialist.
Yup, that’s America.
