It’s not meaningless word salad lol I’m literally telling you that these problems can not simply be voted or legislated away. That’s what we always mean when we talk about electoralism
But my local DSA chapter does a ton of mutual aid, helping people join unions, organizing protests constantly, running union members for political positions on pro-worker platforms, etc. These are all things that potentially improve material conditions and at the same time even if they are largely lib, opens more people up to the left
Because the original comment you’re responding to directly references me holding office.
Regardless, you sound like an absolutely huge downer. You’re going to have to accept that not every movement is perfect and as long as it’s not actively hurting the socialist movement, which the DSA and mutual aid does not, it’s a good thing.
You’re not even a member yet you make all of these big claims about how terrible they are, about how you know for a fact the marxists are lib lol, how they’re rebranded democrats despite the dem establishment always endorsing the DSA endorsed candidate’s challenger.
You sound like the kind of person who says shit about how demsoc is awful but you still would’ve voted for Bernie. Get over yourself.
So you're just going to sit around and wait for someone else to come along and do the work or what? How do you think those groups were formed, just overnight suddenly? Are you part of any org? Do you do any organizing? DSA does a ton of labor organizing, tenant organizing, mutual aid, racial justice and environmental activism, anti war and anti imperialist campaigns, socialist education, etc. not just electoral work, and even in the electoral work its usually tied with community organizing. Having to have this dumb argument online with people on this site is haram, log off

Hi not talking about electoralism, I'm dad!
My chapter fed hundreds of people during the shutdown, my dude. Shut the fuck up unless you can do more.
