We're outgunned, outmanned and losing in the information war by 10:1. I don't know about you guys, but knowing that communists are the first target in a fascist coup, I'll be the first one to fuck off to Europe, I don't give a fuck about this shithole country and I won't die for it.
Once again we are forgetting to include PoC and everything outside the US into our analysis.
Seriously, how can we say this when this year has been filled to the brim with protests and uprisings around the globe? China has all but officially secured it's place as a world leader, AES countries are thriving post-lockdown while the first world is still getting wrecked, BLM for fucks sake, PBs getting BTFOd last week, coups being rejected, constitutions being rewritten, Cuba being the forefront of COVID research, etc. There's so much and there's no signs of this changing. Comrade, our only failure right now is that we're not capitalizing, agitating, propagandizing rn while people are searching for answers as to why everything is so fucked.
I am. Every day. And I'm noticing some shifts in how people respond to my more radical/'alarmist' takes and my open disdain for the Democratic party. We need to just be more mask off IRL in general.
Actual normal people, not in the mythical Republican party sense but immigrants, people of color, poorer or houseless people, service or public workers, essential workers in general, hell, throw medical staff in they're because they're on the frontlines of this whole mess, they're out here trying to peace everything together, either falling to conspiracy or apathy, or don't think about it because they got bills and responsibilities. The closest to mass agitation of these people was the Bernie campaign (RIP) and while we'll never have the funding he had, these people still feel the same way and are just waiting for the right comrades to give them community and hope.
That's where we come in and, like Quill said, some of y'all are probably already putting in good work. We just need to grow more now, become an actual vessel for people power.
I'm an optimist, I assume the reason I don't hear about more peoples' praxis is because we have good opsec here
o7 to the comrades that are. They will be our glorious big vanguard that we love uwu
