    They stay inside and rant and rave about how things SHOULD be while we are out there actually making the incremental changes to try to bring it about.

    Incremental changes like allowing abortion bans, trans bans, the cost of living to skyrocket, drone striking workers around the world, doing nothing about the climate, allowing millions of avoidable covid deaths for the sake of the rich… Oh and presiding over the restoration of child labour? Those incremental changes? Anything I missed?

    You’re useless. You are projecting enormously when you say we socialists only talk when literally everything is going backwards even when you’re in power.

    What do you even do anyway? Are you organising? Or do you just vote every few years and act like that means you do something? We organise.

        Me personally, I teach and make my students aware of the dictatorship of capital, imperialism, the profite motive… Basically marxism-leninism 101 on a introductionary level.

        Other than that, I’m active in the teachers union and volunteer in the local chapter of the Marxist leninist party tog et local projects of the ground, like extending the public transport network, social housing, and most important of all, talking with people about their problems, the rise of fascism where I live and how to counter it, as well as the current neoliberal line of thought in both local and federale government.

        What have you done?
