This is the kind of gap between rank and file voters and the party establishment that will likely cause some real havoc and disruption in the party's politics and primaries. In a different way, it's what gave rise to Trump in GOP.

Wealthy CEOs want to hide how much they make. The SEC hosted a roundtable laying the groundwork to do their bidding. They call it 'simplification.' We call it hiding the truth about corporate greed.

In the midst of a multi million dollar smear campaign against a Dsa candidate, blanket condemnation of the org that he & thousands of others are inextricably part of does not allow for recognition of work my comrades have put in to build this org under incrdible hostility bsky.app/profile/dems...

My reaction to painting the whole organization, that thousands of black and brown comrades have worked hard to build into the type of org that can propel Zohran to victory, as awful. I fully agree thereβs a huge problem with toxic racists in Dsa, per my 2nd tweet. not close to the majority.

There are awful people that claim to be part of DSA just as there are awful people who claim any affiliation. The barrier to entry for DSA is filling out an online form. Socialism beats fascism & DSA is the largest org doing the work.

I truly hope left & prog candidates can ride the Zohran wave and boot centrists from the party, & it is also imperative that we beat the drum that a healthy DSA chapter was an essential ingredient in forming who Zohran is & is inextricable at every level from his campaignβs success t.co/GftxUKQ4Rq
