Raskolnikov38 posted:based on that pic someone linked of cops posted at a DSA meeting i'd say its a p safe assumption that the FBI et al already have people on the inside the fbi have had a black budget for infiltrations even after 1991 and for an organization of the dsa's size the likelihood of there being long-serving operatives from way way before this membership bump is somewhere between 100 and 1 million percent

yes that is the stereotype. meanwhile here in reality, those parties you are so quick to dismiss are organizing and participating in actions against fascist insects, the carceral state, the police state, and amazingly not giving very much of a poo poo about the other orgs doing the same psl is — right now! — building a dual power organization with tons of affiliated and non-affiliated issue and advocacy groups and it is doubtful they will mention hide nor hair of "dead russians"

Thaddius the Large posted:This, however, is a pretty terrible way of going about it, especially in telling a person of color that their experience is wrong, and is doing exactly what you're accusing others of. Socialists have enough trouble with the perception that it's a bunch of white people ignoring issues of race on an organizational level, if not outright discriminating, and doing so on a personal level isn't any better. Rather than shutting down that conversation, we should be open to criticism and feedback, and seek to be more inclusive of how to best advocate for the oppressed. Isn't that kind of why we're all here? it's less "what you see or think isn't real and neither are your concerns" and more "my direct experience has been the exact opposite of that"

putting aside the philosophical problems of allowing cops or friends of cops or w/e in an explicitly socialist organization, if you are making any actual effort to challenge the prevailing ideology of the state it's in your org's best interest to self-preserve you don't want to take any risks even if you aren't breaking the law, which dsa most definitely is not

TomViolence posted:Pretty much because crime under a socialist system that has definitively put capitalism to bed without its supper would be nothing like crime as we know it now. Consequently the approach to managing or combating such crime would require a solution radically different to the forms of police force that have hitherto existed under capitalism. At the very least a drastically less militarised agency whose purview does not include repression of dissenters and minorities, futile drug wars, mass incarceration or frivolously prosecuting property crime. the last four things are a given but idk what you're hoping will happen to the inevitable counter-revolution if not, at the very least, politely repressed. if you're talking about after that, then sure. yes. but that's a stage of socialism that has yet to be achieved in reality anywhere
