At the last National Convention of the NAM, delegates opposed to the merger with the DSOC, in order to create the DSA, were heard to shout out,"Who killed Rosa Luxemburg?!" I assume they were members of the August 7th Caucus. Obviously, Irving Howe, signed off on Ebert's, presumably verbal order to have Rosa and Liebnecht killed. Howe, was a member of CATNAM ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Socialist_Organizing_Committee#:~:text=Forces%20on%20DSOC's%20right%20wing%2C%20led%20by,(CATNAM)%2C%20urged%20that%20instead%20of%20courting%20New ) , the Committee Against the Merger w/NAM, whose members abstained on the merger vote. Eighty percent of the DSOC delegates voted in favor of the merger, twenty percent abstained, none voted, no. Quoting from an article in The Atlantic ( http://In%20response%20to%20a%20post%20on%20X%20affirming%20Harrington’s%20opposition%20to%20Stalin%20and%20Mao,%20DSA’s%20chapter%20in%20Worcester,%20Massachusetts,%20posted%20a%20video%20of%20an%20attendee%20at%20the%20convention%20shouting,%20“Fuck%20you,%20Mike%20Harrington!”%20The%20Worcester%20chapter%20celebrated%20that%20the%20organization%20had%20put%20“more%20communists%20in%20leadership,”%20making%20it%20the%20“largest%20org%20of%20socialists,%20antizionists,%20and%20commies.” ) , by Arash Azizi, a former member of the DSA ," In response to a post on X affirming Harrington’s opposition to Stalin and Mao, DSA’s chapter in Worcester, Massachusetts, posted a video of an attendee at the convention shouting, “Fuck you, Mike Harrington!” The Worcester chapter celebrated that the organization had put “more communists in leadership,” making it the “largest org of socialists, antizionists, and commies.” -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
