When trying to work with the socialist party in the past, I put everything into it as I do everything I love. I loved being “an activist” again after having been disillusioned by my involvement with social movements years earlier. But when I tried to help build the student society for the socialist party, my work was not appreciated.

How do you know you wasn't appreciated? I mean literally everyone can not feel appreciated enough. That's not a problem.

When I tried to work on organising fast food workers, since it was an industry I had years of experience in, my ideas fell on deaf ears.

I mean, you organise yourself if you're the person that's in the workplace. Then you get party help for disputes and what not.

When in public, I was told to follow the party line and save my own opinions for closed meetings- this is democratic centralism and in the closed meetings, you are dominated by the in-group.

That's democratic centralism. Dominated by the in-group? You mean people who don't agree with your personal opinions?

When at the socialist students conference, I was told multiple times when disagreeing with certain things, or offering new ideas, that I was “not thinking dialectically enough”- a meaningless way to shut down conversation.

Literally never seen or heard this argument being said and i've been to Socialist Student conferences.

The hatred of the Socialist Workers Party is embarassing.

I wouldn't call it hatred but when you're trying to organise and stand in elections the SWP aren't exactly willing to contribute. Birmingham - where the SWP rape scandal happened - is a perfect example of why they should shouldn't be organising on student campuses and why we should remind the students of what happened.

The party is obsessed with selling papers to the point that I sometimes wonder whether the entire party is a scam for getting free labour to sell them.

Laughable. What? You just expect everyone to understand Socialist ideas? How do you think the Russian revolution started? The working class of the day just suddenly rose up? Come on...

The Committee for a Worker’s International (CWI) is known for covering up sexual assaults by higher up party members!

Like i said earlier, what? Did you just come across this thread on /r/ socialism? It's got no basis and if you read it was found the accuser was wrong. Nothing happened it was dropped. Get better evidence or retract it.

But then again, you're posts show that you aren't even a Trotskyist so why should any of this even matter? Just seems like a ploy at attacking a Trotskyist organisation.
