    Organizing doesn’t spark revolution. Crisis happens regularly in capitalism (George Floyd, October 7th, ICE attacks, data center advancement, the AI bubble), and this mobilizes the masses into action. What the masses actually do while mobilized, however, is limited by their class consciousness and the presence or lack thereof of organized leadership with a coherent plan.

    The task right now is to, as I have said, educate (both yourself and the rest of the working classes), agitate (in favor of socialism and revolution), and organize (a disciplined cadre of professional revolutionaries that struggles alongside the rest of the masses). I’m dead serious about this, this is basic Leninist revolutionary theory, and it works.

      Just in case it’s needed I’m much more interested in talking to you than my replies might imply, but I’m probably out for now because thus fucking insane Mod seems to be dead set on making sure any outside thought doesn’t threaten his walled garden. Have fun!

      Then for fucks sake why are we pretending that all of this screeching on LEMMY of all places is going to have any effect of the 80% of people still getting their news offline or nonparticipatory, the whole thing here that pisses me off is that the same anti-electoralist dispshits who bothsides D&R every year do nothing but carve down the margins of the politically disenfranchised and pretend there’s a “REAL OPTION WHERE ELECTORALISM IS REAL AND ACTUALLY WORKS” That evert.single.fucking.time. just opens to door for fascism and republican death cultism to just wade in and lie to everyone because they aren’t even listening to begin with? Where’s this energy trying to tell the uneducated and unfortunate that Trump is a fucking moron with no scruples? No, let’s fucking spin in circles laying the groundwork for something that MIGHT work in40 years when we’re at +3C and a thurd of the popilation has died of the next Covid.

      Maybe depending on capitalism to create your opportunities isn’t the best strategy either.
