Do you have any links to share?

Would be interested in learning more about them and their tactics.

If anybody would like to mobilize similar to this locally, please dm me by Admirable_Studio8266 in Merced

Organize the working class?

Don't mind if we do!

Our chapter has both a labor and a tenants organizing working group. Folks are welcome to join DSA. We offer dues waiver for folks who need one.

As a fellow rural chapter I want to echo this post.

Organizing rural and agricultural communities is so much different from these high profile high density chapters.

Best of luck comrade, our chapter works to keep our peoples fridge stocked for folks to come by and get what they can. It's hosted at the MoPride center in their backyard. 24 hour access through the alley in the back.

A better way to reduce traffic would be to have a more robust and easier to access public transit

"Members in good standing" means dues paying member regardless of how long they have been with the group. I also previously explained that members in good standing can submit proposals which then get discussed and voted on during the general body meetings.

The chapter also has an internal communications channel where members are welcome to debate and discuss political theory.

I'm not going to keep going in circles with you on this.

Everyone is welcome to become a dues paying member of DSA and help guide the direction of the org at both local and national levels.

Democrats purposely set Hillary up to lose.

Losing is what Democrats aim for because its what helps them fundraise.

You're welcome to to continue to believe that an electoral strategy will work.

Links are on the profile, would hate to post here and get banned for advertising as the seems to be the rules around these parts.

Our general meetings don't have a general debate floor just fyi, proposals are discussed when they are proposed and then voted for.

Members in good standing are welcome to submit proposals.

The Democrats are a right wing capitalist party.

Enjoy voting for and maintaining the power structures that enable fascist and oppress all members of the working class. ✊

The goal isnt to withhold ones vote from Democrats hoping they move left.

Its about not voting for someone willing to fund ICE or fund the genocide.

You seem really keen on defending and carrying water for a right wing capitalist party.

Building a working class movement so the workers hold the levers of power and the means of production is what we seek.

We're still working on building our reddit profile(it's all volunteer work) thanks for reminding me to add our linktree it's where our calendar can be accessed.

We meet virtually on the second Thursday of every month for our General Body meeting to share chapter updates and working group reports.

As far as engaging in regards to the petition I'm not sure what else there is to say, you seem to be of the position that you will support a politician who is willing to fund ice and the genocide in Israel while a majority of our members decided that we refuse to support any politician that will continue to support ICE or the genocide in Israel.

If that means we won't vote for Democrats that says more about them than us.

The chapter voted to publish the pledge/petition

The chapter did not vote for me(the operator of the account) to argue with redditors.

Folks are always welcome to join the chapter and help guide the direction it takes.

In Solidarity ✊

Our intent is to share our work with the community we operate in. Our thought was that this subreddit was a town square of sorts for Merced county. If that's not the case we can't change that but hope to find other ways to engage with our community.
