Thank you for clarifying your analysis. I recognise that I haven't automatically seen the vanguardist aspect of the matter, it is right that the vanguard party will be the one teaching the ways of the revolution.

However we still need to address why is there no credible vanguard parties in the imperial core. My bet is that imperialism allow for the fragmentation of the working class by virtue of not having any more industry, as well as a lifestyle that is depressing and precarious rather than physically violent, and a political system that can orchestrate a spectacle of democracy.

All of these are material factors, it's not about the metaphysical state of the proletariat, it's their material relality created by imperialist extraction.

But of course you're also right to mention that there is a Eurocentric tendency in saying "people aren't ready" without mentioning that only imperial core workers are in that state
