    Lmao he's getting so thoroughly ragged. Everyone who called him out months ago is getting vindicated too and overall the consensus seems to be that anti-China shit is a right wing talking point.

      We love to see it.

      Capitalist realism might be unraveling before our eyes and it's time for us to push hard to make sure the people becoming disillusioned become comrades and not fascists.

        It's why the Consent Manufacturing industry has been especially hard at work (as seen with Cuba, China and Nicaragua) while the Reactionaries are getting even more blatant. And unlike the 1930s, we don't have the stage set for a "New Deal 2.0" to salve the class conflict.

        Then again, we don't have the actually-present American Left or Labor movement of that time either, and we need to get one yesterday.

          We have the vague shape of what could become something revolutionary though. Mass civil rights uprisings last year and now a huge wave of strikes this year, now is the most important time for agitation.

            I agree. Even the Russian Left c. 1917 can trace their ideological and organizational roots back to something relatively minor (The Narodnik movement) 60 years prior. Decades where nothing happens, yada yada.

            We just have the current issue with organization and agitprop, since both extremes ("Doomerism" and, to a lesser extent, optimistic complacency) seem to be prevalent right now in the Left.

          very worrying. I honestly don't see how there's enough time for one to form.
