The 1890s called, they want their reformist revisionism back. There was this guy by the name of Bernstein in Germany who was saying the exact same shit. A dude in Russia going by the moniker “Lenin” disagreed. Guess which country ended up becoming the first socialist society and which became a dysfunctional liberal democracy that fell into fascism. Reform has never brought about socialism, only revolution has. It doesn’t take a genius to see why. The capitalist ruling class will never give up its power just because you played by their rules and vooted extra hard.
I wish I could force every single person who thinks like this to read reform or revolution.
Japhy… My guy… We got people whose politics speak with bullets and they want to kill my loved ones.
Yep, people like this are incredibly privileged as marginalized groups have to frequently think about violence that might occur against them.

Sounds about white middle/upper class. You’re in no real danger when shit hits the fan my guy.
Bernstein and Struve forever alive it seems.
