i can give my whole experience with DSA chapter maybe even blog about it. but the cliffnotes are that I met them at the second no kings rally and decided to investigate them to see if they’re worth contributing too. also I’m still in the tire kicking stage.
I’m more curious about other people experiences with DSA. did you hear about them? did you attend one of their meeting? have you done anything with/for them? any opinions on the organization?
I am terrified that all organizations like this are likely to be raided at some point. Then every known member will be rounded up for blacklisting, “reeducation”, or disappearing.
“Are you now or have you ever been a member of the (fill in the blank) party?”
Don’t let them scare you into compliance. Fight for what you believe in.
The same principle unions operate on. To successfully oppose you must be willing to fight back under your own name. It’s unfortunate, but most work can’t and shouldn’t be done anonymously. The strongest resistance is public
The fact that fear exists is a reason to stand up against the government.
I’m not government is actually getting more incompetent
Fair. But weighing malice against incompetence seems risky these days with malice ascendent.
