The phrase that (to me) gives the best explanation of entryism:

"Which is more likely? That one person will change the minds of an entire institution with hundreds of people, or will an institution change the class interests of one person?"

    if that's the thing you think is happening here, i don't think you have a clear view of what you're looking at.

    After watching the UK Labour party go through this for the last 30 years (technically longer but not in my political activity) which is a far less robust and more easily coopted party than the dems I'm inclined towards the position that entryism in the dems is a totally futile endeavour bordering on harmful because if they get a small amount of success you will end up locked into a socdem vs conservative political battle for 30 years that eliminates any possibility of socialism until some stupid ass neoliberals find a way to purge the left as "antisemitic" and inadvertently causes a whole new left movement.
