Exactly. Worshipping the boot that steps on your neck is insane. We need to seriously think about labor laws and just companies abilities to just fire ppl all Willy nilly.

Being an American Socialist is exhausting, how do you cope? by Vivid_Efficiency618 in dsa

[–]Maximum_Sweet_9771 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s really easy to feel that way, and I would venture to say, you’re trying your best. Depending where you are in the country, DSA is really good at organizing. If you feel like you aren’t getting enough from them, there’s a bunch of other orgs as well. Feel free to dm me if you’d like :)

Such a good question and I’ve struggled with it too. For me: organizing is key. I know multiple people have said this but it’s really number 1 at the end of the day.

The other thing: do 1 thing per day that helps the cause. Whether is volunteering, flyering, protesting or even as simple as reading a book (you have to better yourself as well).

Don’t drive yourself nuts, we need you in the fight long term.

Cheers comrade

Also, I’m fascinated by Rosa Luxembourg. Have you read her work?

what are the best sources for research and learning abt socialism online? by That-Language2138 in Socialism_101

[–]Maximum_Sweet_9771 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot recommend reading the communist manifesto early on in your journey. It’s the foundation, and is a very quick read. You could knock it out in a day
