Well, who could have guessed the DSA is just a cesspool of pro US imperialist socdem and liberal reactionaries?

The Answer: Everyone who is not a western leftist fraud.
This from the DSA subreddit: https://redlib.tux.pizza/r/dsa/comments/1o0jcp2/mamdami_calls_maduro_and_diazcanel_dictators/
The DSA as it currently stands is not a real organization. Most people who joined have been in the past 5 years. They were all libs before that. The fact they aren’t all MLs is not surprising and not even to be expected. Going into these groups and pushing the people and organization left is still a good thing. And I support all comrades who do that important work.
I joined originally after Bernie in 2017, kind of lost interest after awhile. All of the radical members left afaik. I rejoined recently and oh man is everyone libbed up. Someone started talking about the Uyghurs in a group chat and I wanted to throw my phone at the wall. It would be great to try to push these people left, but I feel like I don't I'm the person to do that.
Many such cases. I think the best way to bring about change is to join groups like Red Star (I believe is the name) within DSA who have an organized plan to push DSA left. Arguing with libs who are active because they want to have a friend group doesn't really work well.
Half the group is just western Chauvinist assholes.
What does that have to do with what I said? Local caucuses vary drastically depending on the already existing leftist groups in that area.
