Shamelessly stole this from BE; but it is objectively true. The Hasan industrial complex and associated DSA sympathisers must be purged. Democratic Party entryism is the worst tendency of the “American left”
This is a clear red line, you do not compromise with the Clinton cult. America will never even get close to socialism or much more actually fucking not interfering with other countries. Thats just on counts of pure geopolitical isolationism. You won’t even come close to dismantling imperialism with progressive liberal Democratic Party activities much less figure out what that actually requires.
The Hasan and hanger-offers of American streamers are among some of the worst. This includes The Deprogram too, while not completely uncritical of entryism, the gist of r/TankieTheDeprogram users when you bring this up is to engage in “nuance” and argue that maybe the Democratic Party offers some practical pathway towards popularisation of socialism. There has been a bit of a shift in the sub and they are distancing themselves from him, but they are still far too soft.
All it will do is repeat the failures of 20th century social democracy. If you keep compromising with the capitalists, you strip away all the teeth until you just end up with nothing you hoped for. The breaking-off must happen at some point. You do not build up the fucking Democratic Party and call it party building. The ones who defend Hasan on r/TankieTheDeprogram figured out to call anyone too-critical of the DSA an ultra, which is essentially their version of saying tankie.
Anyone who is not American who hears this almost wants to implode about how burger-brained that take is. They are really doing “Marxism-Leninism” within the framework of American “democracy”. This is the dividing line, the moment where the BreadTube left can finally die and grow into something that has a chance of having actual teeth.
The Nebula elite, liberal progressivism and scolding can give way to a universalist, anti-imperialist path. Anyway, give BadEmpanada money. Maybe put your efforts into joining the PSL if you are American.
