>Even the two largest "socialist" orgs, the CPUSA and DSA, are anti-gun. Who is capable of fighting for the left, both in ideology and in weaponry, besides a few tiny Maoist groups and maybe Vermont?
Right, yeah. Nah, there's not going to be a civil war. In the short-term what you might get is a more progressive turn in the Democratic Party in 2028 because there's a larger base for it now than when Bernie was running, and the Republican austerity budget is about to fuck up people's Medicare. So something could happen there. But it's always funny when some Republican senator brings up the PSL as some mastermind behind the ICE protests or whatever because they have the signs. It's like oh my God these people must be really well organized! But it only looks like that because in a major city there might be 30 members of the PSL, and they're the ones with the signs, so they jump on anything that looks like a happening and the crowd follows them. But that is like the bare semblence of an organization. In reality I don't think anybody in American politics has some big organization or well thought-out plan.
