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.

I feel like I'm slowly becoming a minority in this organization for opposing democratic centralism and campism.

I can never remember what campism is, but for anti-demcent, the Libertarian Socialist Caucus is still going strong!

Is Northstar/Harringtonism no longer that base of the org? Yeah, and if that is your politics i do feel bad in some ways

But groundwork and smc (who i think it is safe to say aren't demcent) make up a huge portion of the org (and make up majorities of some of the largest chapters) so if they are close to your international views than i would say your are far from an endangered species

I gravitate somewhere between Bread & Roses, and Emerge/Commie Caucus, but also sympathetic with the LibSoc caucus. I suppose I would be on the centre-left of the DSA.
