This is the DSA co-chair. Let me summarize what he says in this video:

We’re using the Democratic Party as a ballot-access vehicle, not because we share its goals. We build our own organization, get elected under the Democratic label, caucus with Democrats when it’s useful,… pic.twitter.com/zYwsv4J8Bt

4 National Review:

The Democratic Socialists of America have never had much use for democracy. The organization has supported the Cuban regime and its crackdown on dissidents, backed Nicolás Maduro’s “Venezuela Solidarity” movement, defended North Korea against America’s pursuit of its “imperial interests” on the Korean Peninsula, and alleged that Russia’s expansionist war is the result of NATO’s “imperialist expansionism.” After 10/7, the organization evolved from a bunch of blinkered old communists into an antisemitic hate group.

5 The civil war in the Democratic Party between the DSA and 'actual' democrats should be fun to watch and should weaken both in the years to come, if not sooner.
I expect that a lot of working class moderates who skipped the last NYC Mayoral election aren't going to skip the next one.
I also expect more business to leave DSA run cities and states making it difficult to impossible for the DSA to deliver on their promises.

8 We have been losing this battle since the 1950s, at least, because we failed to understand the battlefield was in the university system.

Social Security started with Franklin Roosevelt, a man who was quite taken with Joe Stalin. Social Security is little more than Big Brother telling us he doesn't trust us with our own money so he's going to take a good chunk of it away from us as we earn it so he can dole it back out to us in our old age in amounts that he sees fit. And if we croak before we get to collect all that we paid into this little scam, that's tough. Whatever interest that money would have earned for us is never earned for anybody because the government steals it and squanders it and then takes even more money from our children because there's nothing left for him to keep making payments to us. Old Joe would have been proud.
