    This sounds accelerationist. We can’t organize the working class into revolution by being indifferent to their needs. It’s no way to build trust.

      I really don’t care what happens to the american working class or left sorry. I don’t consider them to be comrades they’re selfish and will use any chance to enrich themselves off of the back of a movement they don’t care about anything outside of the USA, they’re the epitome of labor aristocrats. I regret spending so many years of my life helping them for free, meanwhile they cashed in six figure checks for other peoples labor.

        Sorry for assuming you are in the imperial core.

        What would you suggest the extremely few anti-imperialist socialists in the core do?

        Worth noting, approximately 18% of American adults earn more than $100,000 a year.

        They call it the K-shaped economy. There’s an upper portion of the working class whose lives only get better (high wages, private property, investments) and a lower portion whose lives only get worse. It’s hard to believe that someone who is going to work a low wage job until they die so they can give most of their paycheck to a landlord is bourgeoisified by imperial superprofits.

          I know what a k shaped economy is. The American left is completely hijacked by Zionists. Ever heard the saying that if there is a Nazi in the bar you’re drinking at, you’re in a Nazi bar. Same goes for Zionists if there are Zionists in the movement you’re a part of you’re in a Zionist party.

            What left? The Democrats? lol

            The US working class, on the other hand? I don’t have a breakdown by income, but 60% of U.S. adults have an unfavorable view of Israel these days. I suspect if you mapped that onto the 80/20 split in incomes you’d see a strong correlation.

            The US working class is being debourgeoisified by the war, incomes will be eaten by inflation and people will blame Israel for it. That’s not exactly correct, the US and Israel are part of the same Zionist entity, but blaming Israel is a good first step.

            Times are changing.

              I wasn’t around for it, but it seems very similar to how public sentiment changed in the Vietnam debacle.
