    No, the DSA doesn’t have a better strategy. PSL gets more done per member, and actually has the cohesion to get things done. PSL is at the forefront of the ongoing protests against Trump, Israel, etc right now.

    Maybe if Red Star Caucus became the only caucus in the DSA, they’d finally develop the cohesion necessary to wield its size properly. It’s certainly better to join an org than not, but if there’s both a PSL chapter and DSA in your area, you’d be far better off with PSL.

    PSL’s primary advantage is that it’s a revolutionary party that doesn’t shy away from participating in elections. It isn’t focused on electoralism as the only strategy. The Democrats are a party of capital, they cannot be truly taken over.
