I'm loathe to say it, but this is a fucking insulting article and genuinely makes me ashamed to be a DSA member.
I need everyone online to know that this doesn't reflect on me, and that this is a minority viewpoint within DSA.
Until this point, DSA has been hesitant to declare solidarity with the Palestinian resistance. It's past time for that to change.

Absolutely every single progressive should join the DSA. It's a democratic org so no matter what your personal ideological leanings are, you're still able to have a say and a place.
More importantly, we're ALWAYS stronger when united and organized than when we're working alone🤝

"Middle class" in the UK seems to have a more explicit "professional, white-collar, college -educated" connotation.
"Middle class" in the US is just a stand in for "your average guy". Basically synonymous with "American dream"

Because having this view on Hamas, which is basically uncritical in effect, is, if not explicitly antisemitic, basically excusing antisemitism.
This is not a necessary opinion to have. It amounts to "edginess for the sake of edginess".

Gonna put it out there straight, regardless of your opinion on DSA caucuses or factions:
If you disagree with this tweet, please unfollow and block me.
The strongest anti-Zionist activism transcends nationalism and antisemitism in all its forms.
Socialists must work to stop any expression of antisemitism in the movement as well as any slogans aligning ourselves with conservative, antisemitic forces like Hamas, the Houthi or the Iranian state. These self-marginalizing tactics are a dead end.

Ashik has vision, experience, and passion in spades. I encourage yall to vote for him!!! 🌹🪴
Socialists love to debate everything. But on one thing, we can all agree: it's our duty to unite the working class, fight for liberation, & win it.
I'm running for Co-Chair to do whatever it takes to build a DSA that leads collectively everywhere, every day.

Hey if you build taller in cities that means both more green space for agriculture (less sprawl) and more space to live in assuming condos are allowed to be tall enough

"Exactly where you want to go" is crazy considering the parking situation in Toronto
"Safety" is too considering the car crash rate
Comfort is subjective (I feel a lot more comfortable not having to drive and worry about traffic), but the car does win on privacy.

Once you account for how overwhelming college-educated DSA is, it makes the racial disparity become less pronounced. It doesn't entirely disappear, but the education gap explains a good portion of it.
