Honestly its rude to be invited by a country to meet their president who decided to respond to your criticisms of their administration only to not show up and go meet the opposition.
Being invided and then no showing shows complete disregard to basic diplomatic Etiquette since it was a mission to show solidarity against the embargo
Bonus socdems being cringe part 4.5: about another member that didnt show up to the presidential meeting
Deeply unserious people
The DSA isn’t a single entity really, it’s a decentralized mass of tons of different squabbling groups. Some of them are attempting to repudiate them, others are defending them. The DSA isn’t really capable of enforcing discipline on its members.
This whole organization is a mess, being able to keep a cogent message for the party is the bare minimum in organizing political action
It’s not a party though. It’s a site of struggle and a place where communists can organize and educate among a very large membership of people open to left wing politics.
How effective is that if all they have been able to produce is more liberals
