    Lol I like how DSA get some real wins and magically its an institution that’s a branch of the Democrats party used to subvert and dissenters. It’s nothing how green party is called useless and a way to spoil elections for democrats(even though they never spoil the election)

    Now I’m helping various movements uncritically and watching these infighter get mad when they can’t name an accomplishment they done

      I mean, I volunteer with Food Not Bombs, and their politics is well to the left of the DSA. But if you ask them what their accomplishments are, its a pretty straightforward “We feed the homeless people that the police would rather see starved to death”. That’s it. Every week, getting out and distributing food, even if people get arrested for it.

      Now, there’s definitely other people who just spend all their days shitposting and doing nothing else of consequence. But they’re not typically the people I meet in person when I’m out trying to make my neighborhood a better place.
