The rally was great, got to attend in person. Really refreshing to be in a room of people that generally agree with your core political values without any of the typical career seeking theatrics.
Im talking with the Revolutionary Workers party people tomorrow afternoon about their org, I’ve seen some criticisms but im curious what the vibe is with them to the other users here?
For one the rev workers are super super new (like one year old basically). And then they follow a trotskyist line, which usually means they are anti-AES. Because the party is so young I haven’t seen how their line manifests in practice, so I’m in the wait and see mode. One thing that makes me a bit sceptical also is that the party seems to revolve around Kshama as a political figure, which can be a problem long term.
It sucks. They’re awful. She refuses to build a socialist org that brings others to positions of leadership, it’s all cult of personality
What is it with the Pacific Northwest and cult of personality socialist orgs
There was a time when her former group was running multiple candidates, but it didn’t work out
Thanks for the viewpoint I appreciate it. I’ll definitely bring up some concerns about the focus on Sawant, especially since the party is seemingly against career politican types. I did really like Sawant when she was on city council here back in the 2010’s, so I’m interested
