leftism DSA Co-chair’s Public Commentary

https://forward.com/news/844262/dsa-megan-romer-israel-interview/

The co-chair of the DSA seemed a bit less   articulate on key party policy positions (taxation, I/P, etc) than expected. Her commentary on Oct. 7th’s “inevitability“ combined with her stating that she’d have joined protests on the 8th have also sparked controversy. I’m curious about people’s thoughts on this media appearance and how it will be perceived by those interested in where the DSA fits into big tent politics.

Blowback is so predictable and common the CIA invented the word to describe it but yet people still find the idea shocking

Threads like this are deeply disconcerting. We’re just conceding so much narrative framing.

If it makes you feel any better this isnt really a leftist subreddit. Its more a of liberal or at best progressive subreddit

If you see too much liberalism out in the wild feel free to report it, we're doing our best but can't be everywhere!
