Ah! The "it'll resolve itself" is about the better-off top-30% portion of the imperial core's working class realizing the material component of their exploitation and class. Not that they become coherent or socialist or anything like that. Unfortunately, class consciousness is a necessary but insufficient component of getting a strong socialist contingent in any country. Nascent class consciousness can be directed down reactionary paths and this is particularly easy in the imperial core given its powerful propaganda machines.
Sure would be neat to have a vanguard party. I at least know some coherent anti-imperialists and it seems like there are 100X as many of us as there were 15 years ago, so there's some medium-term (20 years let's say) hope of forming a coherent political bloc that doesn't get exterminated and can survive for the cool zone where recruitment can really pick up.
My assumption is that the US will fail to respond successfully to dedollarization and profitability crises in light of China stabilizing the global south, so attempts at social fascism will generally fail along with it.

how does one consciously choose to not trust said propaganda?
:shrug-outta-hecks: you just do it
