DSA’s National Political Committee did not agree with the two most prominent democratic socialists in American public life.

doesn't really seem like a huge dunk on the DSA tbh

knowing Israel@will retaliate- do you get that they don’t give a FUCK about Palestinian lives?????

damn silverman, what if the israeli military simply... didn't retaliate? is it really solely on the prisoners inside the concentration camp to break the cycle of violence, even as that violent cycle is being continuously engineered by the guards?

Also, in any socialist organization worth its salt the direction should be coming from the ground up, not the organization acquiescing to a couple of high-profile nominally socialist figures.

That's a word carrying a huge load for those liberals, if you're talking about who I think you're talking about

The DSA has constitutional measures to undercut structures of democratic centralism, so it shouldn't be surprising that the liberal administrators want to be able to steer it as they please.
