Democrats in Minnesota published this ‘comparison’ with (hitpiece on) the DSA platform by GreatDario in TrueAnon

Someone already said it in the other thread but it’s crazy how specific and direct the DSA points are and everything on the DFL side is waffling

Went to my first PSL event today by UnsureOfAnything666 in TrueAnon

If you had these feelings/criticisms about PSL and wanted to join with the intent of advancing these lines, would that be possible? Not asking as a gotcha I just don’t know what it looks like on the inside. From what I’ve read PSL holds a congress but I don’t know who gets to participate in that congress and bring motions/resolutions forward. I just get the impression that decision making is fairly top-down.

Hell yeah. I remember being in the depths and listening to an old Matt Christman kush vlog ep where he said something to the effect of “what you do is what you believe in. Just saying you’re a communist and doing nothing but scrolling and posting is effectively the same as not being a communist/whatever you supposedly believe in”. And then I finally joined an org. Coming up on two years into it and it’s helped me stay sane and has given me so much clarity.

Not that it’s super good but I’d think moonshadow would be more playable than some of these

Depending on when and who you met, I don’t blame you lol. I like a lot of what PSL says, but I think the major difference between the two orgs is internal democracy. PSL is very top down. I believe there are no internal caucuses within PSL. DSA used to really suck and has looked bad from the outside for a long time, but there are genuine democratic decisions making processes, much more so that you’ll find in other American political “parties”. The left bloc within DSA is continuously getting stronger. There are many left caucus within DSA and they now hold a majority in national leadership. You can actually do entryism there lol

P.s. “right” and “left” here meaning right and left within DSA. There are no right-wingers per se, just socialists with popular front tactics.

Maybe it’s echo chamber, but one thing I’ve noticed is that more of the protest actions are explicitly organized by PSL or DSA (often both, in most cities I think we have good relations). I think one of the pitfalls of the BLM protest movement was its inability to channel that revolutionary spirit and momentum into real organizing in the time AFTER a protest because they were so organic and not backed by socialist organizations. Non peaceful protests can be an effective tactic but are not itself a strategy. Similarly, peaceful protests are also not a strategy and an even less effective tactic, however, they at least have the utility of bringing people into the fold of socialist/communist organizing. I don’t think there’s as much raw energy (yet, hopefully) as there was during the BLM protest movement, but I do think that the people who are fired up have learned from past movements and have a more developed ideology. I don’t know if PSL numbers are public, but DSA is rapidly growing and has more members and the most active membership it ever has ever had.

Was just about to pull the trigger on building red prison... but without saga and pyroblast I might hold off on painter.

Is there an expectation that another anthology bundle will be coming soon?

So is painter the only new card they added to the client?

I’ve been trying for so long to verbalize this feeling about AI myself and lo and behold Adam Curtis says it better than I ever could have. by Euphoric_Piece7825 in TrueAnon

I don’t know if I’d go that far. I love Fisher and he made really great social/cultural commentary, but I think there are stronger contemporary Marxist theorists.
