Well as you might guess, Nathan, I think it's a load of crap. There were a few moments when I had some hope that the youth section of DSA was showing some signs of spunk & radicalism, but this convinces me that the organization's subordination to the Democratic Party is hopeless.
This is a beaut:

More democratic? The reason the UN isn't involved in this war is that at least two rather significant members, Russia and China, object, as do many smaller countries who can only view NATO's offensive strategy with alarm. Is DSA working with some special definition of "democratic" here - as in decisions DSA agrees with, or perhaps decisions the Democrats have already made?
