    I believe we’re building towards a revolution, but whether it is successful or not remains to be seen.

    Despite what you might see from weird guys on the Internet, grassroots-level Socialist politics are as active in America as they’ve been since the Red Scare. Big Things are Happening. In parts of the country where 20 years ago there were just Anarchists doing drugs in bars and 5 radlibs attending City councils, there are explicitly Marxist political parties with dozens of members organizing protests and events that draw hundreds of attendees. Every year interest and applications grow exponentially.

    They say we’re supposed to have Revolutionary Optimism, but personally, I don’t really care one way or another if we win - I’m just mad, I have nothing to lose, and I want to fight.

      Yeah it seems that Capitalist’s hubris, don’t care about what people say about socialism anymore, big mistake. I hope one of these days desperation from the majority at large will try to find a way for real solutions to thier problems and Marxism will explode.
