When I talk to co-workers about our material conditions, my aim isn’t the immediate implementation of utopia. Our legs aren’t long enough to get there in one step.
You are doing bike rides for cancer. Your aim is to throw a demonstration, for an actual movement like I just described. e.g. Yemen. 1 million mfs out there for Ansarallah. that’s a real community event. Exaggerating but how about a city you ever read about thhe 1877 St. Louis general strike which grew out of the Great Railroad Strike? Shut down the city for a week as the workers seized rail depots & demanded an eight hour day. KKK elites founded the Veiled Prophet Society the very next year to reassert ruling class control & displace union parades. An illustration published in the paper to mark the first Veiled Prophet parade in 1878 depicted the “Prophet” in white robes, a mask, & a pointed hat while carrying pistols & shotguns. You need to have your militancy pre-prepared not just go for recruitment. If you do anything worthwhile they will kill you. You are not doing anything other than trying to accelerate your entry into the asset market & get people who already won help you. They don’t even really believe you exist, despite the evidence (I do without it). Your shit is a parade for old people and evil zillenials. Seizing power not massaging your language to get recruitment for donations for an NGO model. Structure. I have no interest, material or intellectual, in helping you convince grandmas who are financially enmeshed in the system of assets that churns a fair chunk of the impoverishment of the global south & will treat you to a completely blank-eyed look if you point it out. Or call the cops if you go too far. Hence the massaging of language you know uou have to do.
Why are you acting like this “movement” (shuffling around?) is suddenly building workplace soldiarity when we’re discussing the activist side of it? You’re the one deflecting from me pointing out the disunity between these causes & their status of being evil + led astray of simply accruing more leftover labor hours & buying into the asset market? That’s not just evil dawg it’s impossible. It’s being blown up with missiles rn, your hope of “organizing” for FDR treatment tough luck time for clasa war or nothing in like 20 years.
My optimism level: 6% (7% before PressTV resumed Bernie SSandlers posting)
Yes, but that’s answering a different question.
