Do you know how often bourgeois democracies elect "socialists"? Hell, many of them even elect "communists" on the regular. It's normal. Get over it. Please.

EDIT - there are basically two main genres of Mamdani poster, both of which keep scrawling MAMDANI on the wall in their own excrement for different reasons, and they all seem to be assuming I am from the other side lol

Counterpoints:

  1. DSA types actually occasionally read and have chapter adjustments and realignments from these complaints
  2. The types of complaints we levy about Trump types and the solutions to that get mods on us for "fedposting" (A shitposter can't be a fed? I thought this was a left space! its tradition!)

I mean if you try to form any violent group RN you're an idiot and will 100% get caught in a Kash Pattel FBI honeypot like those Anarchists in LA

Oh, I agree but from what I've seen whining in the direction of DSA at least gets them to have some struggles sessions (or at the bare least argue if something may be right), Like how some of their chapters/caucuses are signed onto a letter calling for Zohran to dump Tisch. So if we're arguing a "the complaining should have value," argument, complaining about DSA types has more use. If the view is the complaining is pointless and just venting the DSA SIOs are can at least be whined about with mental spiraling and the call to adventure. Also, there is something about someone proclaiming to be of the same viewpoint as you then staunching acting against that which can be especially grating in comparison to them calling themselves something entirely different. It's why you see dozens of people constantly polemicizing against national socialism, national Bolshevism, ACP-types, in a way they don't MAGA. If a fascist goes "I'm a fascist" vs. "I'm a communist" you only are going to need to argue with one of those statements.
