Hasan Piker on Mayor Zohran Mamdani and how Mamdani can leverage his popularity and outside forces like the DSA to potentially encourage Jessica Tisch to condemn the presence of ICE in New York City: "If Zohran Mamdani is a competent administrator, if he's a competent executive, he utilizes the unbelievable amounts of pressure coming from the outside to carve out a specific deal with Jessica Tisch, if he's not going to drop, which he probably isn't. If he was smart, he would use the outside forces, including the DSA, to his advantage to say, 'Look, I'm getting a lot of pressure. Your popularity is waning so you have to at least play ball with me here. You have to contest ICE activity. You can't actually defend ICE.'”

DSA isn't an explicitly ML party, they have ML factions but the org doesn't practice demcent as a whole

    Yea I know, I intended to comment on whether it’s good or bad practice and the fact that democratic centralism is intended to prevent that made me think it’s bad practice. Although I understand it’s more nuanced and is necessary in some cases. My thoughts on DSA’s organisational structure is not very positive
