Context: DSA voted against endorsing progressives Chi Osse and others. But caved to centrist Liberal AOC this year, changing their stance from previous years for no apparent reason.

is the dsa any different than the democrats?
Completely my opinion: their member base is 50% more progressive than your average Democrat, and the organization is 25% more progressive on paper but effectively 5% more progressive in reality.
Each percentage is what felt best when I typed it based on being a disillusioned former DSAer. I left because they were too conservative for me.
Comparing progressiveness to Democrats is a bar so low that it’s a tripping hazard in hell.
