seriously. it’s not that big a deal. if people in gaza are still standing up to their oppressors every day then you likely have zero excuse for not doing more IRL shit (political reading and writing at home are good, but don’t mean anything if you’re not applying that theory as practice and then assessing the results and adjusting your practice accordingly).
Let’s get this one out of the way: what are peoples hot takes on these orgs off the top of my head?
DSA: Libs who don’t really get anything done except tell you to vote for AOC (and they can’t even control their elected candidates) and Biden
WFP: Completely fucked up by supporting Warren in 2020
Local Democrats: Might as well CW yourself
CPUSA: Fed central
Got any hot takes about the IWW?
There are a few decent DSA chapters and some good people in the org but as a whole it sucks. I learned a lot from my time in it and met some interesting people so I would say if you’re trying to learn it’s your best option on that list but understand that they are far from revolutionary, totally undisciplined, and questionably principled at best.
