For those priviliged enough to not experience poverty or not struggle with money at all, the path to radicalization is mostly an intellectual one. What others intrinsically know as their lived experience they have to make up through study. That does not mean, however, that they are lesser comrades to the impoverished.
I was sitting in a library in one of those highly selective colleges (which I also attended) when I overheard a young woman telling her friend about the concept of surplus labor value. She had learned about it in class that afternoon. The idea had never occurred to her, and she was pissed. Like, incensed to the point where she was planning to tell her dad.
I have some doubts about how that discussion was going to go, but it was a nice change of pace
Thanks for that. We need allies. I don’t care if you’re socDem, anarchist, Tankie, posadist, etc. if you’re down with reforming/ abolishing Capitalism, I’m with you.
What shall we replace Capitalism with?
A purposefully mixed economy.
Exactly. Neither Capitalism or Socialism is the answer - the worlds best societies are a measured mix of both.

Are there any specific countries with a specific system that we could use as a model/template?
In my experience if you don’t have a P card you are a very suspect leftist. Engels for real shows they are real AF so we need em bro for real. Just have to purity test em
