Thread: The DSA ( @DemSocialists) has nothing to do with socialism.
It has four members in congress, and all of them voted to elect Nancy Pelosi as speaker. @CoriBush @AOC @JamaalBowmanNY @RashidaTlaib. @Ilhan & @RepPressley also vote for Pelosi.
What does this mean?

There's no diff between the DSA and the Democratic Party.
The DSA as an organization just endorsed Pelosi's leadership of the Democratic Party. Their vote is an endorsement of Pelosi's political record. Bailouts for Wall St. Decades of imperialist war. Mass surveillance...

The DSA took the energy of the thousands of young people who (mistakenly) joined the DSA because they wanted socialism, and handed it on a platter for Nancy Pelosi, who epitomizes the American oligarchy.

Everything the @WSWS_Updates has written about the DSA over the years is proven correct, again.
Here is a list of all the articles the WSWS has written warning of what the DSA was: a capitalist faction of the Democratic Party.

All those like @jimmy_dore who hope and prey that their pressure will make AOC "do the right thing" have received yet another lesson from history.
Jimmy: Pressure most certainly does not work. (He deleted these tweets). And he is afraid to invite @jkishore on his show!

The Democratic Party is a 200 year old institution of capitalist reaction. Slavery. Jim Crow. Palmer Raids. Japanese Internment. Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Vietnam. Afghanistan/Iraq. Drone assassination. Wall Street bailouts. Joe Biden.
IT CANNOT BE REFORMED!

"...telling them they must not turn toward independent, revolutionary socialism, but must rather exert all their energy trying to change the Democratic Party. Each failed effort at reform has paved the way for the Democrats’ next crimes."

Those reading: If you want to fight the Democratic Party, that means building an international revolutionary party of the working class. That's the Socialist Equality Party ( @SEP_US) and its sister parties all over the world.
