True, but DSA is a large, national organization that's been around for decades, so that implies both institutional inertia and factionalism. It may be a group of both social democrats who don't feel welcomed in the democrat party and actual socialists who may not see any other viable alternative available to them.

    Yes there is definitely something to creating a unified front between both camps, and I have no problem uniting under this banner, at least up until the point we take over the Democratic party in a stable enough way to start splitting hairs on policy.

    That makes sense. Although we can dream about left unity, the differences between some of the folks in the party may be to great to reconcile (i.e., a lot of people in the party are not left at all).
