I had a DSA member tell me to watch out for tankies irl. Many of them might know better than to say it out loud, but plenty of real organizers believe tankies exist and need to be purged

It doesn't help that the tankies they spend so much time raging about are 10x funnier than them.

DSA told me they coordinated with the police for all of their protests as if it was a good thing lol

Each chapter functions differently

true, the lack of consistency and cohesive principles is baked into it

The DSA isn't demcent, by design, so there's more infighting and variance between chapters than demcent orgs.

Correct. I would even go further to say there is not even a shared goal or purpose, so organizing that way leads to infighting and a lack of cohesion inevitably.
