    It's things like that this that make me skeptical about a revolution. The sheer number of people who'd leave you out to dry for a quick buck makes me think that such a revolution would be hamstrung by class traitors more so than actually getting crushed by imperial forces.

      they'd leave you out to dry because they have been convinced that is their route to security. the trick is get them to understand that it isn't.

      Class solidarity is important. The rich are very good at it. And very good at giving us reasons to fight each other. And they've been good at it for a long time.

        Hmm, I've read my fair share of theory. I'm skeptical about class solidarity because there'll always be assholes who want a bigger piece of the pie. Get 20 people in a room and you're bound to find at least 1 person who thinks they're "smart" for gaming the system by being a class traitor.

        American Individualism is disgusting.

          You're right. There will always be opportunists and counterrevolutionaries I suppose. I'm not smart enough to know what to do about that. But the struggle continues.

              yes it seems like the Party needs some sort of shield against wreakers and opportunists, maybe a sword as well...
