what’s the end goal here Zohran. ‘Socialism’ (actually social democracy) but with a roving gang of armed and organized fascists that we just ignore? are we just going to kick the issue of systemic racism down the road because it’s “woke 1” to even talk about, until it becomes a powder keg again? this is the actual internal DSA white chauvinism contradiction that MSM are clawing to find but they won’t use it as a real wedge because it’d increase the salience of Defund again
True! I certainly have concerns that these next couple of years will be “as good as it gets” for US socialism, because the core principles aren’t always clear! I hope the messaging will get better defined before it’s too late (I think there’s still some time to get this straightened out).
