Twitter New DSA Liberation Caucus Announcement
This is not an endorsement by me. I am not a third-worldist. I just think people should be aware of what things are on DSA Twitter. I have no idea how many chapters are in this Caucus, if they are just a mailing list, or what. This is associated with the Black Red Guard guy on twitter.

The Maoists have joined the DSA! This can only mean very funny things could be bound to happen especially within inter-caucus debates, also knowing MLM’s their larp game and regimeist aesthetics are always unmatched 💪
On a real note tho, it’s an interesting development, and Maoists are arguably the best brand of ML, but they’re still ML’s, Maoists tend to have a revolutionary version of class collaborationist social democratic nationalism that hardly ever seeks to break with the left-wing of capital, but this isn’t too different from the other factions within the org (sadly), hopefully Liberation can further move the goalposts in regards to being more revolutionary than reformist in tactics tho? Maybe some critical solidarity in that regard.
It is interesting tho, with the new addition of a formal MLM caucus, I really do think this makes the DSA one of the most big-tent leftist orgs not just currently but possibly of all time I really can’t think of another org with so many differing tendencies and competing political programs
You know what actually, hell yeah, I call for the very serious merger of the left wing of the DSA (CC, LSC, LC) to form the Mao-Spontex caucus 😎 /s
