it seems like reform would just leave the bourgeoisie to either corrupt the party or destroy it outright by force. suppose it where to go militant would the bourgeoisie just use modern surveillance facial recognition etc to grab the upper hand and destroy any revolution.
Yeah you should. Even if the party isn’t perfect (none is) you’ll get more concrete experience than you would by just reading theory or doing online stuff. If you don’t like it you can leave it too so there’s no harm in giving it a go.
