Yes this is brie talking about force the vote.
But the real message is that the dsa and M4a activist and organizers have no real idea or plan what they are doing other than talking. I don't really know how you get more grifting than all these Ngo political orgs.
Disregard DSA national. Treat local DSA chapters as a nexus to find recruits for whatever local project or campaign you have. National keeps talking about how "we need formal structures or else we'll get crushed like occupy" and basically just recreated an NGO. The best national can do right now is promote active membership, and facilitate communication between chapters.
