I don’t think DSA endorsed Platner, they did one of those “this guy isn’t endorsed by us but if you’re voting, he’s the least bad” that DSA for some reason loves to do
True, although I can see them trying to run that lesser evil thing has an endorsement. Though idk how much we can say that’s the DSA’s fault because at that point, that’s just looking for ways to blame us.
I’m honestly kind of OK with that stance (yeah we can have a struggle on HB about it), but it thought I saw they full endorsed.
Did I fall into the “tankie narrative”? My b if so.
I do think it is good practice to differentiate between “these are the electoral choices, and this one is less bad, so they have my preference” and “I endorse this candidate/policy”.

i think it makes sense for them to do it in general, with who they’re trying to reach. surely those are for disaffected liberals and not us.
