So this is the “how based the DSA are changes chapter to chapter” I’ve been hearing about :mao-aggro-shining:
Chapter leadership is always tricky, in some cases it probably based on caucus affiliation of active members and the networks they build within the chapter, in others its probably based on working groups themselves and how active people are in them. Helping build caucus presence in your chapter can go a long way to influencing internal politics. Emerge in NYC has been doing a good job building coalitions and pushing against some ideologies, being part of it has given me a lot more understanding of how these internal org structures really work.
I'm looking to also organize a reading of On Practice/ On Contradiction with my chapter. So far in my fairly short expirience with them the most active members seem pretty based
jesus dude's TL is strictly copaganda retweets and a bunch of dehumanization of the unhoused
absolute fucking ghouls
solidarity with sf comrades in their protracted war against yimbys and all these weirdos lmao
its the SF DSA commie caucus
https://redstarsf.org
Emerge , Red Caucus , and Communist Caucus are also similar. We have a joint publication project called Partisan we're all working together on.
I'm trying to get more involved first but I want to start one in my city. Also why are these caucuses separate?
Red Star, Emerge, and Red Caucus are all local caucuses for SF, NYC, and Portland. Communist Caucus is a national caucus but most of the members are in CA i believe? You can join the communist caucus if you can get 3 other people to join with you from your chapter and plan out what you'll be working on.
I was thinking about joining the east bay DSA then the sf DSA, then I heard they weren’t Marxist, then I figured I need to do something , but ML sf seems to be the way
A lot of leadership in SF DSA is actually Red Star caucus members so they actually have a lot of influence in that chapter. Jen is actually also an elected NPC.
Hey. If you know those with the DSA SF twitter account, tell them to block those neoliberals organizing in the twitter comment thread.
i think they saw that its more funny than anything tho, imagine neoliberals thinking they need international grass root organizing lmao
Tweet says DSA but the form gives an option for non-DSA members... Kinda confusing but I signed up anyway.
pretty sure its open for non dsa members to attend, did you get an email about it after signing up?
this can’t be tolerated in an organization with a name nominally of “democratic socialist”
What do you think “nominally” new means, dude?
