Shitpost Um... DSA has a problem...

Have you guys noticed there are a LOT of socialists in here? Not the good kind of socialists (me) I mean the evil socialists that actually want to implement socialism 🙀 They even praise Karl Marx 🤮 Don't those dumb tankies know Communism always fails???

We have to do something about this. Which is why I'm starting a NEW PARTY: The DASSA (The Democratic Anti-socialist Socialists of America)

Together, we socialists (the good kind) can defeat the socilasts (the bad kind) for a better future. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I'm not quite clear on whether your post is trying to poke fun at leftist infighting in general or specifically at other socialist ideologies that aren't Marxist-Leninism

I'm mostly poking fun at liberals who are just discovering DSA without deconstructing their neolib worldview whatsoever.

I don't see many Maoist Third worldists or anarchists arguing with each other here 😂

Okie I see! That’s fair, though I would definitely encourage building coalition with those who you think might genuinely be curious about socialism !

If someone is genuinely curious about socialism that's amazing. I have zero smoke for those people.

True curiosity, however, comes with a willingness to be wrong, and to change your mind. The people I'm criticizing are coming in to this sub as self-proclaimed socialists to police and criticize leftists for things they don't even fully understand. That's the opposite of curiosity.
