Yeah, these meanies were violent against poor Elbit Systems machinery
I get what you are saying, the Russian revolution was a success despite sharing a feature that was a great hindrance. I think though that saying “X has always been like this” has a somewhat ahistorical quality to it. There is simply no good knowledge of the future.
Where I am from there are like 8 different leftists parties laying claim to the same chunk of people. There will be one big and relevant party in the end, but getting there has the danger of a bajillion parties competing and creating noise rather than directed struggle. XKCD standards meme
I would tend to agree on the class party aspect, but as with anything there is an outward motion. The most effective struggle doesn’t start at the higher levels of abstraction. Egoism comes first, not in the Stirnerian sense, where people make sure they are not deported by ice, where military service is eschewed, where when arrested the fifth amendment is kept in mind. The next stage would be tenant unions, trade unions, more organised forms of struggle. Then education, reading circles, discussions, talks and so on. I see the party as the capstone of all of these working class interests. Ultimately it becomes the expression of our species’ interest towards the end of class struggle.
It’s not about the wealthiest 0.5%, the oligarchs as you’d call them. All of this revolves around the struggle against capitalism. Workers (about 60 to 70% of society depending on the definition and employment rates) against the bourgeoisie (~15% including petit bourgeoisie).

Joining a union or creating one is one of the most subversive things one can do in this day and age. Propaganda for unions is very effective at leveraging the class schism in favour of workers/socialism.
Just don’t a union that advocates creating large weaponry or represents law enforcement/servants of the state.
Proper unionising makes capitalists piss their pants. I have read a ton about politics (to my detriment – rip mental health) and it seems to really give you the most bang for your buck.


sorry a gay wesleyan student hit me over the head with his meinkampf intersectionality edition, I am now super hitler (woke) /j (but on a serious note, this is what Israel defenders think I am)


OK, I don’t think he is a person.


Mid twenties here, same situation. My bank closed my accounts lol


This mindset isn’t really conducive to meeting your needs.


Marx and Engels predicted that economies would become dominated by rentiers


I sympathise with the sentiment, but please don’t shame people with disabilities/continence issues. It’s embarrassing enough as it is.
Okay, abolish capitalism. There is no way of satisfying your needs, which includes surviving climate change, without changing the fundamental structure of society.
Definitely a couple of humans.
