He literally advocates for direct action in the first 3 seconds of the video, and it’s not a cardinal sin for a socialist to run for office, it just should never be seen as the end all be all.

Honestly, at least it’s a socialist on the ballot and not another demokkkrat, or straight Nazi.

I’d be cautious towards Dan Osborn.

Ouch, can't ask for a normal Western leftist, can we? Honestly, despite those sus things, at least he's better then a straight democrat or republican corporate ghoul, but he's not much better. Can the US please put forward one normal candidate.

In general, it's better to let American leftist lead-organizers/figureheads prove themselves rather than take what they say. Agreed though, he's a bit...off.
