This is a public school in South Carolina. Report them. 😡

In an interview with The New Yorker, Democratic Socialists of America national co-chair Megan Romer stated that DSA supported a free Palestine, meaning the establishment of a single state.

DSA's position is consistent, not only with the historical Palestinian vision for liberation, but also with its own democratic platform and with basic human decency.

The One Democratic State Initiative welcomes this decision and calls on all democratic organizations worldwide to also support the establishment of a democratic state instead of a settler one in Palestine.

One of the biggest arguments I keep hearing is that “Democratic socialists” who are going to vote for Dems come midterms are just “capitalist enablers which will take away from any progress towards socialism”

but my question is what revolution is going to happen if leftists arent trying to join or even possibly take over the democrats?

Americans mostly vote on single issues that are common to them (e.g. Christian men vote Republican b/c of reactionary policies). Shouldn’t leftists be focused on using that as a means to create the conditions necessary for a revolution?

I know it sounds silly and its asked a lot but I want to discuss it myself so I understand where people are coming from

EDIT: for clarification/context I am not voting 3rd party

The One Democratic State Initiative is a Palestinian political organization working to revive the historical Palestinian vision for liberation —a single Palestinian state, for all of its citizens— and to mobilize individuals, entities and political parties, in Palestine and abroad, behind it.

Hasnieh Al-Natsheh and Alain Alameddine, two of its coordinators, are ready to answer your questions up until midnight, Occupied Palestine time. They'll make sure to answer any remaining questions tomorrow. Check out our website and ask away!

Just in the past few months I’ve been banned from multiple leftist subreddits for being opposed to authoritarianist communism. The last one was just now, from r/tankiejerk, with one of the reasons being that I was in favour of the democratic rechtsstaat (a German/Dutch legal concept often translated as “rule of law” but which importantly differs from that Anglo-Saxon concept by stressing the importance of what is just).

Not only does it just hurt to be rejected and kicked out like that, it’s also left me wondering if I’m even allowed to be a leftist while being opposed to violent and authoritarian movements. With leftism getting more attention here on Reddit, is there even a place in the movement for people like me who like freedom and justice?

How do other people feel about this?

Yeah this is more culture war shit. But so called self proclaimed, self identifying left leaning men coming in drones to defend dumb jokes about women really makes you wonder if men are....just men at the end of the day.

Like "women need to be okay with being called whores for wearing sports apparel. Don't worry guys its just a joke haha you're a snowflake if you don't laugh about women being whores for wearing sports apparel"

Can someone hold deep, deep liberal values while being anti-capitalist

Ummmm thank-you Zelenskyy?

Why the revolution took place in the month of October? Did the month of October has any strategic importance or it spontaneously took place?

I just started a petition to ban the hate group Dominion Society of Canada from academic institutions in Canada if anyone would like to sign or share it at all
