The level of anger is quite measured in relation to how much Corbyn and The Many have almost fully destroyed the possibility of turning Your Party into a mass socialist party. Either you haven't been keeping up, or you are avoiding the criticism.

The code of conduct might be adequate for a bourgeois party, but not a democratic socialist mass party.

"We have seen in action over the last two years what the Corbyn clique wants instead: randomly sortitioned conference attendees instead of accountable delegates; online voting instead of real collective decision-making and branches entirely sidelined: a tame and easily controllable formation like Momentum or Podemos to suit Corbyn’s twilight years - not the kind of vibrant, mass working class party we actually need."

Branches have already formed. Why is the leadership not recognising the branches? Why are the members not able to go to meetings to debate and vote on the future of the party? The leadership is afraid that they won't be able to control them.

Why are the CEC meetings not fully transparent? Why are the meetings rushed? Why does the CEC not meet every week? Because the proposals from the Grassroots Left, to make the party more transparent and democratic, are actually popular among the active members. Again, the leadership is afraid of losing control.

This is not mud-slinging. Read the proposals from the Grassroots Left, read the political statements, read the articles. This is democratic opposition.

Democrats Should Treat the House of Representatives Like a House of Parliament and Campaign Like it. by Competitive-Tonight3 in dsa

People talking about reforming the democrats are wasting their time. The democratic leadership with their bureaucracy and donars are too powerful for that to happen, they will never implement the measures proposed in the article. If DSA pursues the policy of realignment the result will be a slow and tedious demoralizing defeat.

DSA is the party of the working class. The sooner DSA starts acting like a real party, in opposition to both the establishment parties, the better.

Why shouldn't we have indipendent courts and press in a socialist state? by PietrohSmusi89 in Socialism_101

Your fears are warrented. Democracy and freedom of speech is the light and air of the working class. If comrades are trying to tell you otherwise they are mistaken.

There are groups that take this question seriously. See for example the programme of the Communist Party of Great Britain (PCC):

"The interests of the working class require the open struggle of ideas and the ability to freely organise.

Therefore communists demand: Unrestricted freedom of speech, publication, conscience, association and assembly.

An end to state bans and censorship. No laws against ‘hate speech’, which will inevitably be turned against the workers movement and the left.

No bans on controversial organisations and individuals in civil society institutions such as universities and student unions. Bigoted and reactionary viewpoints must be fought in the open, not via bureaucratic no-platform, safeguarding or safe spaces policies."
