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.

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.
