If you are fortunate, the next four years will be stable. You must educate, organize programs to better material conditions, and bring the proletariat into the left.

Do not betray yourself with “doomer” thoughts, these are a form of liberalism and must be routed out. Despair only perpetuates itself and it is hollow.

You have a feckless neoliberal now in office. Biden will fixate on enriching his donors and once again take his eyes away from the working class. He will expose bourgeoisie electoralism as a fraud incapable of delivering true improvements to the material conditions of the working class.

Do not waste these next years. The left in America has not had this opportunity in almost a hundred years. Seize this moment!

You cannot wait for some ahistorical great man to deliver a new world to you. Those figures only appear so great looking backwards, they reflect the workers they emerged from. All of us have fought alongside stronger comrades than them.

Comrades, this is the calm before climate change crashes down upon you. Unite as leftists and as socialists. Discard your privilege, your chains, your false pride. Seize liberation for all who are oppressed. Build your revolution.

    Fuck doom posting this shit can be turned around easy if a mobilisation on the scale of Soviet Union under Stalin or China under Mao takes place

    I am currently reading Black Night, White Snow (about Russias revolutions) and there's a good bit in there how as the Tzar was losing power, particularly after the 1905 revolution, that the entire atmosphere had a doom mongering atmosphere with people retreating into mystics and shit like that. All the poets/artists etc. retreated into a kind of broken narcissm like what you see now on some sections of the left
