       it's a strange thing that I don't understand, but when there's a large urban chapter, the leaders are usually conservative social democrat types, yet when it's a rural or smaller city, the chapter is full of libertarian socialists, communists, anarchists and other radicals. I can't account for this, but I keep seeing more and more people say it

       @interneteh Large cities are good at mollifying people with cosmopolitan liberalism, while other areas of the US are so heinously neglected that they get disillusioned and radicalized much faster and more decisively.

       @interneteh This is also why regional DSA chapters are good at actual activism and good places to network, while the national org tends to fuck up and be indecisive in my experience.

       @Zero_Democracy @interneteh For the most part, this is also the case with actual government. Funny how hierarchical systems always seem to end up more conservative than the actual population... :think_bread:
