We're splitting from Socialist Majority Caucus.
Left Rothbardians of the world, unite!

The Libertarian Socialist Caucus of DSA stands in firm solidarity with the Prairieland defendants, and all those imprisoned for resisting US fascism and ICE terror.

Mamdani’s success and DSA’s are now linked. To counter the oligarchs, we must empower members to push back on these cuts & sweeps. This coordination requires open communication & deep democracy in NYC-DSA, building a movement that doesn’t just manage the state, but holds our leaders accountable.
This "duty" to govern leads to the restart of homeless sweeps. Even with a 7-day warning, sweeps kill and displace. As Pannekoek says, the role of public official eventually forces the use of police against the vulnerable to maintain "order" for the capitalist class. 3/4
As an executive, Mayor Mamdani is forced to govern, making the tension Pannekoek warns of especially acute. To satisfy the capitalist class and media, Mamdani has proposed NYPL cuts—reneging on campaign promises. Executives often sacrifice workers to maintain state stability. 2/4
Also in this way a majority did not come soon enough. So to attain some of its aims the Socialist Party had to make alliances, alliances with other parties. Sometimes in parliament, sometimes already at the polls, sometimes after the polls. This was called then “constructive policy,” which means: reduction of the workers’ demands to that minimum that even the capitalist class cannot seriously object to. Now Socialists get government posts; they become town mayors, aldermen, even ministers. Not as independent delegates of the working class, but by the consent of their allies, delegates of the capitalist class. This is called “conquest of power step by step,” or “not being afraid of taking responsibilities.” What are these responsibilities? As aldermen or ministers, they have to manage the general affairs of state or town under capitalism. Of course they cannot take socialist measures. They have to conduct affairs for capitalism. They certainly try to get some reforms for the workers. As far as capitalism allows it. But most things they have to see to are interests of capitalist society. So Social Democrats grow into the role of capitalist politicians. Surely they are different from the hardboiled brutal type of capitalist politicians, who uphold the authority of the ruling class by brute force. They have more humanity, they introduce reforms, they try to smooth down the class antagonism and to render capitalism more endurable. They think themselves Socialist politicians, taking the first steps in transforming capitalism into socialism. But when fierce struggles arise, strikes or hunger revolts, they have, as public officials, the duty to send police or militia against the revolting workers. A Socialist mayor who assists the strikers from public funds, and sends the police against the Pinkertons, is a white raven and would be removed by a higher authority very soon.
In "The Workers' Way to Freedom," Pannekoek warns that socialists in power often become "delegates of the capitalist class." When we hold office under capitalism, the pressure to manage the status quo, rather than transform it, is immense. 🧵 1/4
Candidate for Californias 40th Congressional District @estherkimvaret.bsky.social loves to spend her saturday nights attacking community organizers in SPICY DMS! 🥵
Is this who we want to represent us?
How is this any different than Chuck Schumer or Young Kim?

Comrade Maddow join LSC
LSC stands in solidarity with Liberation and have signed on to their statement. Removal of leadership based off caucus alone is against DSA's multitendency nature and threatens to normalize political purges.

Fact Check True by Real DSA members.
The project not only requires us to win gains in the workplace, building R&F militancy instead of leadership alliances, but to expand solidarity to include all battles for worker power and liberation, from the shopfloor to the ports to Palestine.
He will bring the lessons he learned in his rank-and-file labor organizing to the NLC.
As a 5-year UFCW member, he formed a rank-and-file group that used direct action and petitions to force the local to finally adopt open bargaining and democratically elect a bargaining committee. In DSA, he's arranged socialist job fairs to help organize industry.

The SC released revised versions of the resolutions at 10:00 a.m., 3 days after the meeting, allowing the press to learn before members. We recommend members vote against them & reject their ambiguous language & practices reminiscent of sectarian leadership cadre

LSC-NYC and aligned local comrades in SoR, Emerge, MUG, and R&R, joined in this call for member power, leadership accountability, and democracy:
Let's Meet the Moment and sustain a principled and effective member organization! Please support the cross-tendency push for a January 2026 special delegated meeting, following parliamentary procedure, to revise our bylaws & build a participatory and democratic NYC-DSA!

We can't afford a costly local fundraising proposal that divides comrades from national. A successful Zohran campaign must expand the terrain, not limit WG interaction and leadership accountability
