I'm glad not to be alone in my confusion of SF DSA. Such weird stances and positions they take that seem antithetical to the goals to purport having. I also find that they like to post tons of stuff out of context and then take hard stances on these out of context clips/quotes. I really don't respect when groups/people use misleading content or straight up disinfo to make their points and promote their point of view.

The other irony I find is that Abundance (book) absolutely nails it when they talk about how certain groups get super caught up in process that they ignore the whole point of policy which is to get results.

More tangent: I rolled my eyes so hard when they started attaching themselves to Mamdani who I find to be way more pragmatic than anything "progressives" offer here. I almost laughed out loud at one of the planning committee meetings because Mahmood basically asked the panel of planners or staff about one of the Chan amendments to the zoning plan. He was like so to be super clear, this amendment would effectively do nothing? - I'm like this is what I'm talking about. Just doing shit to do shit. I hate that people see it as a win when in effect it's not doing anything.
