Is there any hope?
I live an hour out from LA and it's a political wasteland out here

Hi comrade. I lived in LA for some time and recall what a shithole it is. Tons of superficial people. The most radical people BY FAR were the Mexican and Central American day laborers.

What's the anarchist scene out there like? I left before I became an anarchist.

Yeah there's plenty of hope you bonehead

Mexicans are incredible, yes.

Secession when?

What organization?

DSA and some other little things, I spend a lot of time talking to Berniecrats about ML

Am I incredible too when I keep mexicans out my neighborhood?

Why do you think you're dumb, OP?

because of my low Autism Level and lack of problem solving ability

Well you're doing something so that's better than a do-nothing genius. Intelligence is pretty spooky anyway.

do you organize? where you at?

Unfortunately not. I live in one of the most reactionary areas, right in the middle of a bunch of US military bases.

That's when you resort to entryism

i don't know where your bitch ass live, but the DSA is super into organzing rural USA, which is a solid fucking strat. Maybe check out if there's a local chapter, or if there's a chance of creating a local chapter. Their social media people are pretty responsive

Word. I've already tested the waters with people from around here and they're extremely receptive to leftist ideas if you use some common sense and don't use words they're told to be scared of. It pains me but giving them some basic Marxist analysis under the guise that it's just an original opinion gets results.


They don't have a group anywhere near me, but maybe I could establish contact. I doubt I could find anyone else nearby who's a leftist. The only other guy I ever knew from here who was was a complete tankie.

Tits or gtfo

nothing wrong with tankies


we say "post toes" now btich

Yeah but I don't know if "democratic socialists" in the US would give him (or me for that matter) the time of day.

i'm hesitant about getting involved with DSA myself, but i recently listened to a podcast where they interview some DSA organizers (deleteyouraccount.libsyn.com/building-for-socialism). they mention that they do have members who are MLs (among others), and they also talk about the left caucus in DSA which works to pull it to the "true" left and will probably splinter off at the point where DSA membership reaches adequate levels

DSA mostly gets a bad rap since it's like the least leftist org in the major cities but when you're in a deep red or purple area it's the only choice real leftists have

SEND NUDES

In your experience, what is the best way to get people interested and active in your protests and/or meetings?

LA Comrades lets meet up!

fuck you fbi

Non-burger so my knowledge of DSA is fairly limited, but did they actually say they were expected to splinter?

With all the activity in the left caucus there, I was actually thinking they would probably be forced to split once they realise they're going to get stonewalled at every attempt to pull the org leftward. Would be interesting if insiders are outright saying they expect it too.

I really am not.

even the organizers that were being interviewed heavily implied that they're to the left of DSA and would splinter, and that they're only in DSA because they see it as the best option right now for organizing around and spreading leftist ideas

I live in the suburbs, in a very conservative area

Nearest city is liberal-leaning, and there are some but active leftist movements there

How do I join without looking like an undercover fbi agent

They'll have online presence. Contact them, show knowledge of leftist concepts and for the love of god don't start talking about violence.

How can you stomach living in such a conceited, crowded and stifling place?

It's incredible when they beat your ass

I live in Orange County. Do you guys really talk about the "orange curtain" up there?

I'd like the DSA more if their strategy wasn't just "vote Democrat" and not even Bernie Sanders style ones but Obama/Clinton neoliberal ones.

...

t. never been to California

This stereotype is dumb not because the people aren't superficial but because you believe it's any different any where else.

most meeting, especially broadly open ones without specific goals, are boring as hell


sign up with the DSA or write to jacobin about the local reading group which is good


lol never in my life


it's fun you should do it

Why does your post start off with a shitty reddit meme?
