    Serfs and people working 13 hour days found the time to organize for revolution while working for depressed imperislist wages. Working without a doctor less than a day a way. Working without any transportation aside from their own two feet. Walking 10-20 miles per day when fighting militarily.

    The US left us not weak because it faces long or harsh working conditions. It is weak because it has bought into liberalism. It is fully propagandized and is convinced of its own anemia. And, if anything, it fails to fight because it is comparatively overcompebsated, living off of cheap goods provided by the working poor of other countries. The US left does not riot over shortages because there usually are none and when there are they just take it. They are disorgsnized, so they have no voice. They are miseducated, so they parrot the logic the ruling class tells them to follow (such as your logic in voting).

    Now that a larger, whiter proportion of the US working class is proletarianizing through high debt, high commodity prices, lower wages, and longer hours you are seeing forms of radicalization. We should be building on that, not carrying water for the genocide of Palestinians. Feel free to check whatever voting box you want, but don’t tell me you’re “leftist” for doing it, lmao.
