Clean break

From Tony Unger writing in Cosmonaut:

In May 2023, Rhode Island DSA adopted a form of the clean break. At our chapter convention, along with other resolutions that staked out a more radical position for our chapter, we passed a resolution essentially committing us to not endorsing candidates running on the Democratic ballot line and adopting an oppositional stance towards Democrats. This resolution and various decisions we’ve made in accordance with it have occasioned much controversy in the national organization. Despite our minor celebrity, we have largely failed to share our chapter’s experience and the political implications of this experience with socialists elsewhere.[2]
