the chicken tendies reference is a criticism based around a ridiculous meme. it makes humor out of the source of rage/anger which is generally impotent. as you said you dont disagree with that point.
the dsa is obligated to hold aoc accountable as their endorsement of her is a big part of why she's in office. but this issue wasn't a big controversy within the dsa, as the issue was purely a matter of tactics, not strategy.
when the dsa only has a right to hold 4 or so congresspeople to account, they cant do a whole lot in terms of tactics because they really cant achieve shit.
if a floor vote had been held, do you think m4a would have been passed? if you answer yes you are wrong. meaning, if you're right, this controversy was a matter of political theater; pure tactics. even its advocates saw it as such.
at the time this controversy was going on, there was a controversy over the 2k checks. keep in mind, most republican voters were outraged over McConnell's refusal to follow trump's recomendation of 2k checks. even then, the Senate agreed near unanimously to vote against holding a vote for 2k checks(around 88 to 12). this is to say, the republicans told their supporters to eat shit, while the democrats tried to deceive their supporters with a performative fight.
if you give a shit about reform through the electoral process, ask yourself why McConnell represents the 3rd most impoverished state in the country. then realize the only difference between him and the democratic establishment is performative woke shit.
tl;dr no hope in america. we're too dumb, glutonous and enriched by imperialism to want to disturb the current order. leftist infighting is also bad, especially when its over a theatrical production.
