Officially the DSA's goal is to incubate a socialist caucus within the dems until its large enough to break out and form its own party. That said, I don't think any of the DSA reps are actually onboard with that plan. Its more like being in a good position to start a socialist party if the Dems implode.
If their sleeper cells aren't actually on board with this "plan" then it's not a plan, more like wishful thinking. Might as well hope a centrist randomly becomes a communist after getting elected, it's as much of a "plan" as this
They're not sleeper cells, they're openly socialist representatives caucusing together. But yes it is as much wishful thinking to hope our current reps would break with the dems as much as it is us getting enough socialist reps in office to do so.
Preach borther. If you gonna do it do it already.
I dont think that's in the program? Sounds Socialist Majority Caucus specific.
Dirty break strategy is a part of a national resolution to build an independent socialist party. SMC was against it and just wants to do basic entryism.
Ugh, I should pay more attention to national, but already dealing with enough stuff at the local level.
The forums are the only way to keep up with it and there's like 15 layers of drama that's both politically important but also deeply personal to the type of sicko who actually gets into arguments on a DSA forum. And for that reason, no one will ever dare try to help unravel it for you.
Like I could be wrong about SMC entirely but that was just my reading of peoples responses to them complaining how we're not actually doing anything to build this party.
Fwiw though it seems like the major obstacles were alternatives to actblue and ngpvan. ActBlue alternative seems to be done but the NGPVan alt is going to be a nightmare. Probably because NGPVan itself is a nightmare.
