I know DSA gets dunked on here pretty hard, so hoping we can have a constructive conversation about how to make things better.

I’m a DSA member. Plz don’t Ban me…

It’s a smaller chapter in the deep south. There’s a mix of people including MLS, Anarchists, and some baby-leftists. No liberalism and we make fun of Democrats all the time.

What we’re doing:

New member education

BDS, in particular handing out flyers with a list of companies to boycott

Attending Palestinian rallies and supporting the Palestinian rights orgs in our area

Tabling at Pride

Brake light clinics

…and we’re starting a public transit campaign to improve service

What are we missing? What could we do better?

    They function more like a loose network of activists who come and go than a political party

    To be expected because they are not, never have been, and have never said they were a political party. They’re a voter mobilization organization.

    The rest of what you said is spot on. You didn’t touch upon how abusive they can be.
