A political party just isn’t really the best avenue to do that though. I’ve been to valentine’s themed events put on by other Marxist parties and even then, the theme of the event wasn’t so much “thots & singles mixing”, but was about love for revolution/ love for the people. The “trots” part is an even worse tell of the DSA itself lmao.
Well, calling it “Thots and Trots” makes it look like it is for hooking up rather than just dating. It wouldn’t bad so bad in itself but you hear about a sex pest problem in some American left org once every two months or so. On top of that I have heard something about people coming in the orbit of the DSA just looking to get laid.
My experience with DSA and their ilk only comes from what I have read online since they and I are separated by more than a whole ocean. So I cannot definitively say if this symptomatic of larger problems. But I feel comfortable in saying a serious leftist organisation would not hold an event like this, let alone call it thots and trots. It’s incredibly weird.
I’ll take the brave position that this is okay and totally normal, dating apps are incredibly alienating. We need human connections
