    You can join DSA without dues. But obviously do so with a plan and reasonable goals of what you want to get out of it because overall it's an incoherent reformist group that spends most of its time fighting about or talking about things like this. Don't expect too much out of it and it can be a fine first step to getting involved.

    You could also just join a different and better group. See who's organizing local pro-Palestine actions, maybe?

      There's a lot of baby leftists, new ex-Democrats, and people that just don't have a deep theoretical backing joining DSA. It's an excellent group to join and have a real shot at influencing the political line, making sure actions your chapter takes are meaningful, and actually advance Socialism. YMMV based on what chapters are nearby.

        If you personally have a ton of patience and organizing/manipulation skills, yes. Or if you have a core group of people to work with already.

        Without those you'll most likely be one correct person getting dismissed by many wrong people.
