    Good analysis. As I understand it, it's not that it's a moral failing, it's just that it is impossible to be a white American leftist (by this person's definition of leftist).

        This was my initial reaction as well, but the original post doesn’t actually have any prescriptions. It’s not telling you to do anything or nothing, it’s just uncovering the reasons why there has not been a real revolutionary movement in America, excluding black liberation movements etc.
