The DSA should just dissolve at this point. Their entire strategy of socdem electoralism is proving useless for the 20th time now.
Like any opportunist organisation they won’t go quietly into the night. They will only be dismantled once they’ve been thoroughly discredited through the prosecution of a consistent and disciplined ideological struggle, carried forward of course by the true leadership of the American working class.
Just as the Bolsheviks had to discredit Narodism and Menshevism, it falls to American socialists and communists to attack and undermine the basis for so-called “democratic socialism” in the US. Every major betrayal of the working masses like this has to be exploited to the maximum degree possible; to cleave off disillusioned membership, to use as an opportunity to politically educate them, to scare union organisations straight etc.
Maybe the Gonzalo cultists are onto something breaking up DSA meetings.
Why exactly can they vote to prevent strikes? The whole point of a strike is to fuck over everyone in order to upset the business. You don’t need permission to do that.
Also, holy shit at the paid sick days. That’s bleak.
Re-read the article. It’s about accepting a bill that would indirectly prevent the strike from happening if I understand correctly.
It seems the railroad companies + the gov are invoking a 1920s law that allows the gov’t to force mediation, ie legally force the unions to do whatever they want.
oh so Battle of Blair Mountain 2 is gonna have to be a thing?
Ah good ol gilded age. Counting to child labour making full return.
i hate that aoc is considered “far left”
In America only right? I have heard Europeans say she is center right by even their standards.
if “left” means “pro-worker”, there are definitely no people like that in
the capitalist partyeither of the two relevant parties, by designI would say that distinction between left and right is the distinction between socialism and capitalism, really it’s the only tangible line to grab.
yep
In true performative liberal fashion, I’ve gotten a ton of heat from woke liberals calling this shit out. Because according to MSM, preventing the strike was actually a “good thing.”
What was their rebuttal or reasoning?
Most of their twitters went silent on the issue, but I’m sure it’ll be the standard “this starts a conversation”, “it brings everyone to the table” nonsense like she did when she backed Isntreal.
edit: I hate twitter. Another AOC link went down the memory hole due to a banned account.
I remember this, it’s like they turned the AI for empty platitudes up to max and it started glitching.
Really wanted to see a union choke the US for Christmas but the bourgeoisie is way out in front unfortunately

Thanks congress for giving them 7 days of sick leave per year! Ignore this: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/countries-with-paid-sick-leave
Am I reading this wrong or did they also reject the 7 days sick leave when sent to the senate?
Not sure… might have been the house passed the 7 days, but senate rejected it. Either way its nice to know that a bunch of rich capitalist puppets are making decisions for the unions now 🥰 .
DSA is such a clown fiesta. They’ve had elected members step out of what passes for their party line with no repercussion on several occasions. Anticommunist “leftists” are openly at war with the leadership of the party and whining about tankies in bourgeois media. These people are the first to do that wojack pointing and screaming meme about Manufacturing Consent when bourgeois media slanders their favorite social fascist but that same media is very honest about the places Jake Sullivan and Mike Pompeo want beaten into submission omegalul.
