You say "organize" but you also don't have a plan that works. Asking people to read Marx and join your book club is all fine and dandy but it ain't starting a revolution

Maybe some of the theory got it wrong, especially the stuff written nearly 200 years ago

how much theory have you even read, be honest please.

also, you're an american, please, please, PLEASE stop going along with the omnipresent anti-intellectualism present in american society, the number 1 thing you should never tell or even slightly imply to americans is that we dont need to study theory (and develop our own)

I haven't read enough theory to pass the purity test on here. I've read plenty but that hasn't led to a single person getting free bussing or feeding anyone or taking out any conservative in power..

That's part of the problem with the left. Too much intellectualism and not enough praxis! Reading is great, go do that. But also go outside and talk to people who are working these minimum wage jobs, agitate, teach, harass a local business owner, raise hell at your county commission meeting, etc. Fact is Zohran is doing more praxis walking a block in NYC than every book club I've ever been a part of!
