It’s becoming apparent that members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are verbal chefs. Give them any subject, and they will whip up one enormous word salad. DSA Co-Chair Megan Romer tossed one during a recent interview with David Remnick of The New Yorker. He asked her about the DSA's ‘open borders’ stance. You better grab some salad tongs for this one.
Here’s more. (READ)
DSA Co-Chair Megan Romer is asked to explain the DSA position on 'open borders.'
The slightest ask for explanation or scrutiny placed on these nonsensical positions results in this rhetorical gobbledygook:
"They're all part of this long-term goal where we are putting huge amounts of resources into alleviating poverty, into stopping destabilization of countries internationally that are causing a huge migrant flow."
"Most people in the US are here because of a prior period of unrestricted immigration or of much looser immigration."
"We're not saying throw the gates open. We're saying, let's look at where the system is really flawed, really problematic."
Interviewer: "I think that's called immigration reform."
"It is, but we think that you have to look at all of these things from first principles. Right? We started here from first principles. So what do we want out of an immigration system. Let's start there."
"That doesn't mean thinking just throwing open the borders and then building from the ground up."
"It means reforming the system we have while we rethink the system, while we build this new one from the ground up, and then hopefully eventually flipping the switch."
It doesn't matter how you get to "flipping the switch" on an open border. All of that is pure spin and obfuscation.
Just own the fact that you want to abolish the border and mass amnesty.
She stated exactly that about a week ago.
Are these idiots doing any prep for interviews? This ‘open borders’ explanation is a dizzying doozy. (WATCH)

Ah the hand gestures! A clear tell that you’re looking at a virtue-signaling moron. Don’t believe it? Just listen.

Bird hands for a birdbrain.
Posters say there’s a DSA disconnect between helping working-class Americans and wanting to flood the country with illegal aliens. Bernie Sanders once understood this. (WATCH)
They're just such idiots. They haven't thought this through. They know nothing.

You can not claim to care about the working class and be for open borders. pic.twitter.com/ZwI7MzHWQh
It's wild to see Bernie sound sane on this. Gonna be even wilder watching all the Democrats who claim to want "border security" right now reconcile this wing of their Big Tent.
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) August 8, 2026
Either the ‘big tent’ wants a secured border or a wide-open one. There’s no in-between or compromise on this issue.
Commenters wonder how DSA members can hate America so much but want people from all over the world to come here.
If they dislike the U.S. so much would they put so many people in misery ?🤔🤡

“We’ll just solve world hunger and bring about world peace. Then there won’t be mass migration because everyone now lives in Utopia.”These clowns have never interacted with the real world in any meaningful way, and the academic system that should have prepared them for the real world instead filled their heads with this lunacy.

Because they'll make it utopia, you see.
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) August 8, 2026
Yes, DSA has to get all the illegal aliens into America so they can already be here when utopia suddenly manifests. Ah, it all makes perfect sense!
Posters say it’s clear that these DSA drones have not had their presumptions and unworkable ideas challenged. They are all ill-prepared to handle even the softest of softball questions.
I have yet to see a DSA person make a coherent argument that can withstand contact with critical questions

word salad response with lots of BS buzzwords, and bird hands.... she really means: 2021 Biden's handlers open borders again as soon as they regain power....

They don’t have anything. There’s no process, steps or plan of implementation. It’s all surface level, feelings based sound good nonsense that costs more of your money.

It’s a platform based on emotion, which is mostly couched in envy and hatred. It’s all about punishing those who strive and rewarding those who don’t with no idea how economics works. It’s the Democrat Party’s platform except more overt and on steroids. With that in mind, it’s easy to see why the DSA chose the Democrat Party as its vehicle to push their stupidity.
