@peakcapitolism It's absolutely untrue that the Rochester resolution titled ROC DSA for AOC and the ROC DSA for AOC committee now active refer to just any candidate.
The amendment simply notes that prep work the resolution initiates will help us support any candidate DSA eventually endorses.
@peakcapitolism The chapter has always had deliberations before online votes (with minutes linked to the ballot).
More decisions are being made at GMs, but not decisions that would have been made by async voting (which continues to be a thing) so the conclusion about benefits is off topic.
@peakcapitolism The question is why you want to disenfranchise those members. I am suggesting it is because they are less likely to give you the outcome you want.
@peakcapitolism We deliberate then we vote. What you seem to favor, whether since inception or more recently, is disenfranchising members in good standing who miss a meeting whether because of productive or reproductive labor (which may include the self preserving decision to skip a meeting).
@petersterne Absolutely untrue that the Rochester resolution titled ROC DSA for AOC and the ROC DSA for AOC committee now active refer to just any candidate. LOL.

@wellstonism It's sad that you cannot imagine why a socialist who could lead the movement to defeat MAGA would not settle down and wait for “more opportunities later.”
If facts on the ground don't match your priors, your priors about “her politics” must be incorrect (which they are).
@peakcapitolism “A bunch individuals all thinking together” describes a book club. If you ever graduate from that to become part of a movement that engages millions, you need to think about your message and how you deliver it.
@People4AGrnMvmt@escargotpro_ It’s okay to start out thinking, “not elected as a Democrat,” but if you treat the ballot line as a tactical question, not an ideological commitment, you open the door to building power and transforming society—which is where the ideological commitment should lie.
But what is democratic socialism, actually? To explore that question, Socialist Majority has brought together organizers, thinkers, and an elected official (@DianaforQueens)!

@tierrayliberdad@DSASocMaj And imperialism second from the bottom.
And electoral strategy third from the bottom.
Clearly horrible priorities, leading with race, gender, and labor!
Need some light reading in between canvassing shifts?
