    That's true and to be fair I wasn't trying to be wholly cynical about it, although a bit of my bitterness about being involved in recent movements in the UK probably shone through more than I intended.

    I absolutely believe in the ability to agitate and help radicalise individuals, whether that's those in our lives or at demos etc. I just think it's important to remember that the liberal blob, whether that's media, politicians, NGOs or prominent figures aren't going to back you up. We should be agitating, but we shouldn't be relying on anyone but proven comrades.
