What have the alternatives to electoralism looked like on the ground for you? DSA, PSL, acronyms still yet unearthed?

I think joining an org that does all sorts of political work: mutual aid, solidarity actions with strikers, political education, and yes sometimes elections counts if you’re not looking to do electoral work.

Like, most work DSA chapters do is not electoral, and if you’re bored of doing electoral work there’s plenty of other stuff you can do in DSA.

just seems like electoralism light ™ to me, but maybe there’s literally no other mutual aid orgs in somebody’s area other than the political parties
