Help I'm drunk on civility
The American ruling class is just coldly following their class interest. Evil but I get it.
The American people are maliciously cruel, to the point of pursing cruelty against their class interests sometimes.
wtf I love liberals now ????
The liberals doing this are just making it obvious they're the "bribed, pro-imperialist masses" that Lenin insisted on a total break from.
When the new communist movement was formed, it was greatly outnumbered and out-organized everywhere in Europe outside of Russia. Lenin's answer was concise: Since the bribed, pro-imperialist masses were primarily the upper, privileged layers of workers, the communists in order to combat them had to "go down lower and deeper, to the real masses." And again he noted: "....the sufferings, miseries, and revolutionary sentiments of the ruined and impoverished masses"; he pointed to "...particularly those who are least organized and educated, who are most oppressed and least amenable to organization." (We might say that he shared the same perception that Malcolm X had of where to find a base for revolution).
