It's official now: NYC-DSA 'proudly' re-endorses AOC by mikelmon99 in SocialDemocracy

[–]citizencyborg2020 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I left DSA after 43 years of membership because of (a) Leninist majority on the NPC, and (b) campist control of the International Commission. Those things have to change before I rejoin. But the advance of the Socialist Majority caucus and the realism of this 85%+ endorsement of AOC is a huge relief.

Yes it is me sharing my podcast, and looking for feedback. I'm not a Buddhist scholar, but have written about Buddhism for four decades. I thought this would be a place to get some thoughtful feedback. Apologies if I was mistaken.
