Iβd serve the NPC as a principled facilitator of member work, dedicated to the complementary ecology of tactics thriving in the many niches of DSA.
If youβre a delegate & want to find a time to chat / ask Qβs before Convention, pls DM or hit me up:

Iβve done field work for a dozen electoral/legislative campaigns, am a veteran Red Rabbit, and been very involved in NYC-DSA's Anti-War WG for nearly 21 months of escalating horror. Iβve learned many hard lessons in DSA & have tried to distill my story:

Graphic for the Libertarian Socialist Caucus candidates for DSAβs 2025 National Political Committee. The black & red LSC logo (hands shaking over the DSA rose & black/red flag of anarchism) serves as the background, with portraits of Byron L. (Orange County), C.S. Jackson (San Diego) and David J (NYC-Flatbush) lined up underneath.
I havenβt ever posted here, but with the @demsocialists.bsky.social Convention coming up, and since Iβm running for National Political Committee on the @dsa-lsc.org slate, I wanted to introduce myself to members outside of NYC!

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

Before the election, I warned that Trump would pardon all of the Jan. 6 defendants and some of them would form the core of a new rightwing paramilitary organization loyal to Trump.
At the time, people dismissed me as alarmist. I stand by that prediction.
