The Democratic Socialists of America has lots of crazy ideas. From their platform:

“ FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT Allow workers to freely migrate between countries to seek employment without restrictive immigration controls. ” — https://platform.dsausa.org/foreign-policy/

And:

“ UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE Extend full voting rights to … noncitizens” — https://platform.dsausa.org/democracy/

And:

“ NO MORE ECONOMIC WARFARE End economic sanctions that impact the sovereignty of countries whose governments act independently of the United States, such as … Iran.” — https://platform.dsausa.org/foreign-policy/

Etc.

I don’t really care how you’d categorize the organization, simply looking at their policies is enough information to know they’re dangerous.

Propaganda much? Not agreeing with their ideas is perfectly valid, surely you can do so without resorting to hyperbole.

I’ve been downvoted by people tired of hearing the same comments (of a centre left style). Ok, but it sure seems like people love themselves some Fox News. Business doesn’t mean crushing workers, particularly in the areas of interest to HN. Without good, motivated workers, these startups and their bigger cousins won’t fly. And with less open, quiet environments the pool of candidates will be smaller.
