Ace of Baes posted:That sucks, have you considered starting your own chapter? I moved here about six months ago and dont know noone, so im reserving that incase the local party is irredeemable. Figure if it is I can find other disaffected in the meeting and build of that. If that doesnt work i have a wierd knack for running into communists in dive bars so i can try that too

jarofpiss posted:go to the local party meetings and try and get plugged into what other progressive groups exist around you. probably some environmental and the like orgs. maybe death penalty abolitionists. from there you can get your 5 to start an organizing committe, grow large enough to form a chapter, then run candidates in your local dem party, win offices, now you've started a movement and seized state power and the next stop is socialism for all. my preliminary feeling of wyoming is either socialism will take off like a rocket here or ill be immediatly lynched, so hopefully i can confirm which before im annihilated in nuclear fire in ww3, coming this fall.

ChickenOfTomorrow posted:Why not? They're open pretty wide hours, there's drinks and food there, there's a restroom, there's power, comfortable seating, the staff are usually fine with people lingering, and they're omnipresent in cities. Is there another place that would better fit those needs? micky ds and burger king are cheap enough that a five dollar gift card actually gets you a meal

because like you said, its treated like a commodity. they assume it's something immutable and that anything they do will have no influence on it, much like you can't change a vacuum you but at walmart. it's pretty much the perfect summary of political dissociation in the US

Phi230 posted:For future reference how precisely does Neoliberalism hijack feminism and antiracism. The main way i know it is by tieing it to corporate interests and separating any related issues form economics, ie ignoring the fact that an increase in wealth among minorities would help with systemic oppression by reducing/eliminating the negative affects of poverty and allowing them to actually hire lawyers instead of getting dicked around by the law. Also by praising companies for hollow "progressive" stances while ignoring poo poo labor practices that encourage economic inequality (STARBUCKS DID SOMETHING FOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH, LETS IGNORE THEIR poo poo WAGES AND HORRIBLE BUSINESS PRACTICES SO THEY DO MORE~~~)

They are phonebanking and talking philosophy and opening up DSA chapters (I think we have two states where their first DSA chapters were goon founded now) the dem party in my state had berniecrats elected into the state head, and the guys in the dsa pre org comittee are toying with getting a socialist caucus started. probably gonna get jack poo poo done to our congressmen in my state, but im confidant we can get dudes elected state+local if we put our backs in to it

I dont really see the point behind a big national debate at this point. If your local DSA group wants to work with the dems, cool if not hey also cool. Yes it will happen eventually, but i dont think it will need to happen until after the next presidential election and its pretty much impossible to predict what things will look like then
