Also, literally who cares. This isn't politics. Zoomers and millenials are very left-wing and that hasn't changer significantly in recent years. This isn't happening at scales that are shifting the political landscape. Idk why there is an obsession with this shit.

      Getting people laid, or put less bluntly "providing opportunities for socialising", is a valid organising tool. It won't do miracles but a communist organisation will not be worse off it they get a reputation for throwing good parties.

          A major strategy of every successful party. Hell, they're called "parties" for a reason.

            also a space you can still be a "tough guy" type and have good politics too. my friends and myself back when i was doing the masc boymode thing and some people i know today from shows. you can have fun, treat people right, fuck up nazis and fascists and do real work on the ground (food not bombs, mutual aid stuff, orgs back in my day). and now the scene is so far beyond lefty open minded white boys and (some) girls it's racially, gender, and sexually diverse as fuck

          DSA already has that covered

          Might as well go to a Democrat meeting if DSA is the only option, it's basically the same thing but has a bigger dating pool 🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

      Socialism should strive to be closer to the truth at all times, and that includes teaching young twerps how to socialize.
