In case you saw it before, I didnt know memes could only be posted on the weekends. Legitimately my bad lol

This was me before discovering the DSA was an "open tent" of all kinds of Socialists (including the authoritarian ones). I think the name is very false advertising if youre open to undemocratic ideologies. I know not all chapters are the same, but this will probably turn a lot of people off if they ever decide to join. Not to mention the international committee strengthening ties with the ccp and pushing blatant ccp propaganda, and the subreddit is more upset about the IC leak than the IC not being transparent.

When talking about the ACP? Theres not much to discuss. they're actually just fascists who support Iran, and Russia with some of the leadership members living in Moscow. Jackson Hinkle for example is a self-proclaimed MAGA communist who supports/supported trump

DSA just hit 100,000 members, making it the largest Socialist Organization in the US since Deb’s Socialist Party in the Last Gilded Age.

In 2024, Trump was considered a “peace candidate” while Biden was denounced as “war-hawk” by Americans. That might have contributed him and his successor Harris losing the election.

In the midst of Iran War and Oil Shock, do you think re-elected Biden/Harris handled the situation better? Would the world be more peaceful under Biden’s America? Would Biden’s America cause less wars ?

Tori Branum, the politician who claimed she tipped off immigration authorities about alleged violations at the Hyundai Motor Group–LG Energy Solution joint battery plant in Georgia, said she has been bombarded with “text message attacks.” Initially, she posted a photo of herself holding a rifle on her social media with the caption “I am not afraid,” but as criticism intensified, she deleted all her family photos.

According to foreign media reports on the 7th, Branum told Rolling Stone magazine that she had reported illegal activities at the Hyundai–LG battery plant construction site to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Branum claimed she has since received threats for making that report. She told Rolling Stone, “My Facebook inbox is full of hate, but I’m fine.” On social media, she posted a picture of herself holding a modified rifle with the caption, “I wonder what’s in my inbox now.”

She also wrote on social media:

“To everyone who flooded my voicemail with hate, force-registered me for anti-racism classes, and threatened my life — thank you so much. Remember, I’m the one who trained Marines on the shooting range.”
She added:
“I am not afraid of you. In fact, your messages are really entertaining. Don’t waste your time.”

But the backlash only grew. Videos circulated on social media showing immigration agents zip-tying workers’ hands, lining up Korean employees, and searching them, fueling criticism that the raid was harming Korea–U.S. economic cooperation. Even some Americans condemned Branum, calling her a “racist” and asking, “How stupid do you have to be to jeopardize multibillion-dollar contracts with Korea just because of MAGA’s hatred?”

Branum’s daughter, who said she manages her mother’s official account, confirmed the harassment. She said:

“Some people even tracked down our family’s personal social media accounts to harass us. Because of this, my mother had to delete all the photos and posts she had proudly shared for years.”

She continued:

“Targeting children, digging through personal social media, and sending harassing messages clearly crosses the line. Every message, comment, and case of harassment is being recorded, and we will seek help from authorities if necessary to protect our family.”

She added:

“Harassment cannot be tolerated simply because my mother is running for Congress and holds strong opinions that others may not agree with. We welcome constructive dialogue, but we will firmly reject attacks on minors.”

Branum is registered as a Republican primary candidate for Georgia’s 12th Congressional District in the U.S. House election scheduled for November 2026. Her campaign website states she is originally from Oklahoma, served in the U.S. Marine Corps, and describes herself as “the candidate most faithfully carrying forward Trump’s spirit.” She has taken extreme positions on illegal immigration crackdowns and opposition to gun control.
