Well, at one point you did mention S4A might require a commission, I am carrying forward my offer to pitch in if you decide to go that route! And thanks, please keep me posted.

Let me know if you want me to pitch in money-wise if he asks for it! I'll see what I can do 🫡

Unless you're doing actual organizing, unlikely. The DNC isn't friendly towards Leftist orgs either, though MAGA groups themselves may become more millitant.

The answer is that people are budged by degree, not all at once. Many of those events are radicalizing people, but it isn't everyone at the same time.

Again, thank you so much! The list is really cleaning up! 🫡

Appreciate the feedback! Another comrade recommended the Jones Manoel article, and I had to fit it in. I see what you're saying about adding prompt questions, I just can't fit them in a Lemmy post, which was my goal, I think that's a great move though and I wish you luck!

I didn't paint the SRs or the Soviets as bourgeois, and I don't know what you mean by "dismantled" Soviets. I painted the Provisional Government as bourgeois. The SRs had a split, with left SRs and right SRs, right before the election, so the votes were largely uninformed anyways. It made more sense to legitimize the Soviet model and delegitimize the liberal provisional government, since many workers already didn't care about the provisional government to begin with and thus didn't vote. The revolution had immense popular support.

Again, read Blackshirts and Reds | Audiobook. If you think post-revolutionary states are not dramatic improvements on the misery that preceded revolution, you haven't done enough research to speak on the subject authoritatively.

And I am telling you that this is becoming more and more a distant past. No, your average worker isn't going to like the sound of communism, but over time approval for it has shifted dramatically.

You envision the average American as an amalgamation of the various strains of thought in America averaged into one, but that's not the case. People vary wildly in reception to Socialism, and being forthright and honest is important. They have been steadily growing, more rapidly than ever.

Gonna have to agree to disagree here, the overt pacifism and lack of even a unionization message ultimately means it delays revolutionary messaging.

You adjust ajitprop based on audience, and want to serve as a slide without preventing further movement. If you give a leftist message that takes an anti-revolutionary stance, that makes further pipelining more difficult.

On "lefty memes," the people are largely liberals and progressives that can be converted into actual leftists with proper messaging, I wouldn't worry about appealing to libertarian conservatives here.

I agree with pipelining, but messages can't conflict or leave out the further conclusions. I do a lot of pipelining on Lemmy myself.
