i'll start: most "vote blue no matter who" liberals are actually good people (not including terminally online liberals as anyone who is terminally online is a bad person)

    The DSA is an actual, existing organization that holds political offices and is by far the closest thing in size to a mass socialist movement in the U.S. All the parenti-hands criticism along the lines of "libertarian socialists support all revolutions but the ones that succeed" could be rewritten as "libs support all socialist orgs but the ones that grow large enough to matter."

      yeah, the hell of it with a lot of this stuff is that numbers are king most of the time with the way American politics work

        That's how politics work everywhere. You have to have a lot of people on your side to get anything done. The whole astroturfing of the mass conservative movement is itself evidence of this -- even the bourgeois need popular support.
